Abstract

Stress thallium-201 perfusion scintigraphy was used to assess the reversibility of a long-standing left ventricular aneurysm. By identifying reversible ischemia, it was predicted that this patient's ventricular function would benefit significantly from surgical revascularization or percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty.
