Estimation of Rest Myocardial Perfusion Using Quantitative Analysis
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 8
Abstract
Abstract:Estimation of rest myocardial perfusion using quantitative analysis from patients information, and the estimation of heart function done by 99mTc sestamibi heart scintigraphy ranging from simple methods such segmentation of the left ventricle, Therefor in this study from the patients information such as age and body mass index can estimate the rest myocardial perfusion from patients information without need it to rest scan by 99mTc sestamibi. The results show that the rest study can be estimated from patient’s information, so that will the patients not exposed to radioactive material. Keywords:Rest, Myocardial perfusion, Age, BMI
