| description | In Spain, nuclear cardiology (NC) procedures represent the second most frequently performed studies in nuclear medicine (NM) centers.
The NC Working Group of the Spanish Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging invited NM departments across the country to answer an online questionnaire regarding 2014 activity.
Data on 40,161 patients from 42 centers were collected. The responding public centers served 39% of Spain´s population. The estimated NC activity for public hospitals was 2 studies/1,000 population/year. Of all the NC procedures, 69% were SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI), 17% equilibrium ventriculography, 12% 18F-FDG PET, 1.3% first pass ventriculography, and |

A major challenge for NC in Spain is the gradual adoption of high-sensitivity, low-dose-dedicated cardiac SPECT cameras and the broadening of cardiac PET utilization with more cameras, and the availability of MPI tracers alongside the viability/inflammation setup.</description><identifier>ISSN: 1071-3581</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1532-6551</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1007/s12350-017-0912-1</identifier><identifier>PMID: 28493201</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>New York: Elsevier Inc</publisher><subject>Cardiology ; Fluorodeoxyglucose F18 ; Humans ; Imaging ; International Corner ; Medicine ; Medicine & Public Health ; Myocardial Perfusion Imaging ; Nuclear cardiology ; Nuclear Medicine ; Physicians ; Positron-Emission Tomography ; Radiology ; Spain ; SPECT ; survey ; Tomography, Emission-Computed, Single-Photon</subject><ispartof>Journal of nuclear cardiology, 2017-12, Vol.24 (6), p.2133-2140</ispartof><rights>2017 American Society of Nuclear Cardiology.
