Abstract:
Nuclear cardiology is an established part of diagnosis and assessment of patients with possible heart disease, the two most common tests being myocardial perfusion imaging and radionuclide ventriculography. Myocardial perfusion imaging comprises approximately 75% of nuclear cardiology studies in the UK, and is used in diagnosis and management of coronary artery disease.
