Enhanced Detection of Ischemic but Viable Myocardium by the Reinjection of Thallium after Stress-Redistribution Imaging

IN many patients with coronary artery disease, impaired left ventricular systolic function at rest is caused by regionally ischemic or "hibernating" myocardium rather than irreversibly damaged myocardium. 1 , 2 In such patients, left ventricular function will improve after revascularizatio...
