Validation of an automated method to quantify stress-induced ischemia and infarction in rest-stress myocardial perfusion SPECT.

Summary, in English

Myocardial perfusion SPECT (MPS) is one of the frequently used methods for quantification of perfusion defects in patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease. This article describes open access software for automated quantification in MPS of stress-induced ischemia and infarction and provides phantom and in vivo validation.
