Stress-only imaging: We can rest assured

Transformations Have to be Developed ReST Assured

Model transformations do not simply appear. They have to be not-so-simply developed. In early phases of development, there may exist only an intuition or an educated guess on some of the characteristics of the transformation. Instead of assuming a pre-existing complete transformation specification, we embrace change and develop transformations incrementally, gradually refining them into more co...

Two-day stress-rest lower limbs perfusion scan in patients referred for myocardial perfusion imaging

Introduction: Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD) is a major cause of morbidity and is associated with Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). We aimed to perform Lower Limb Perfusion Scan (LLPS) in patients referred for Myocardial Perfusion Imaging (MPI) and estimate prevalence of PVD in subgroups with normal and abnormal MPI results. We also compared quantitative indices of LLPS in pati...
