摘要
Myocardial viability imaging with FDG PET or SPECT has become a powerful method for risk assessment and management of patients with LV dysfunction. Application of computer algorithms to gated FDG images, for objective quantitation of LV function parameters, has made additional prognostic markers available from the same set of images. Routine application of these algorithms along with those designed to quantify the percent of viable and scarred myocardium will further enhance the prognostic utility of myocardial FDG imaging in the evaluation of myocardial viability in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy.
