Abstract:
The method of equilibrium radionuclide ventriculography relies on ECG synchronized scintigraphic data acquisition. In addition, the authors used respiratory phase synchronization. Combining the equilibrium radionuclide ventriculography with emission computer tomography (ECT), they obtained transverse heart images in different phases of the cardiac cycle. Through addition of the third dimension the images enhance the quality of studies of the heart.
