Case history / Imaging data

SPECT myocardial perfusion sudies were performed using Thallium-201. Images representing myocardial perfusion were obtained at stress, after reinjection and 4h delayed.

Stress protocol
  • Treadmill / Modified Bruce
  • Duration of stress
  • 6 min 11 sec
  • Peak heart rate (basal --> peak)
  • 90 --> 111 (85%=135)
  • Systolic BP (basal --> peak)
  • 96 --> 122
  • Double product (peak rate x BP)
  • 13,500
  • Reason for termination
  • Fatigue. No chest pain
  • ECG findings
  • 1 mm ST depression
