VITAMIN D LEVELS ARE ASSOCIATED WITH PREVALENCE AND BURDEN OF PERFUSION DEFECTS ON MYOCARDIAL PERFUSION IMAGING

VITAMIN D LEVELS ARE ASSOCIATED WITH PREVALENCE AND BURDEN OF PERFUSION DEFECTS ON MYOCARDIAL PERFUSION IMAGING

Methods We investigated the association of vitamin D levels with the prevalence and severity of perfusion defects on single photon emission computed tomography - myocardial perfusion imaging (SPECT-MPI) in 5,010 individuals (mean age 65.9±11.4 years, 43.5% males).
