Interactive 3D Hybrid PET/CT Imaging in the Identification of Myocardial Viability in Patients After Myocardial Infarction: Feasibility Study and Clinical Implications

Interactive 3D Hybrid PET/CT Imaging in the Identification of Myocardial Viability in Patients After Myocardial Infarction: Feasibility Study and Clinical Implications

Clinical decision-making in coronary artery disease requires integrated information on myocardial viability and coronary arteries, and cross-modality registration could facilitate this process. The recent emergence of hybrid positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) allows acquisit...
