Reversible Perfusion Defects
Collateral Insufficiency
Case history/ Imaging data

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

Stress protocol
  • Treadmill / Bruce
  • Duration of stress
  • 12 min
  • Peak heart rate (85%)
  • 85 --> 150 (85%=133)
  • Systolic BP (basal --> peak)
  • 150 --> 160
  • Double product (peak rate x BP)
  • 24,000
  • Reason for termination
  • Dyspnea. Typical chest pain
  • ECG findings
  • 1 mm ST depression

  • IMAGES
