Case history/ Imaging data

SPECT myocardial perfusion studies were performed using Tc-99m-Sestamibi with Dobutamine. Images representing myocardial perfusion were obtained at rest and peak stress.

Stress protocol
  • Standard dobutamine (20.9 mg)
    • Duration of stress
  • 13 min 34 sec
    • Peak heart rate (85%)
  • 103 (85%=119)
    		•
    Systolic BP (basal --> peak)
  • 170 --> 178
    		•
    Double product (peak rate x BP)
  • 18,334
    • Reason for termination
  • Protocol achieved
    • ECG findings
  • Upsloping ST
  • T wave inversion
    		•
