Nuclear cardiology

Abstract

Nuclear cardiology techniques allow non-invasive assessment of myocardial perfusion and ventricular function. They have a major role in the diagnosis of coronary artery disease, in risk stratification of patients with the disease, in the determination of myocardial viability, and in the evaluation of the functional impact of known coronary artery lesions.
