متن کاملRelationship between Calcium Score and Myocardial Scintigraphy in the Diagnosis of Coronary Disease
Half the patients with coronary artery disease present with sudden death - or acute infarction as first symptom, making early diagnosis pivotal. Myocardial perfusion scintigraphy is frequently used in the assessment of these patients, but it does not detect the disease without flow restriction, exposes the patient to high levels of radiation and is costly.
