Fixed Defect on Rest/Stress Tc-99m Sestamibi Study Underestimates Myocardial Ischemia: Comparison With 24-Hour Thallium-201 Study for Short- and Intermediate-term Follow-up

PURPOSE:We assessed whether a same day rest/stress gated Tc-99m sestamibi (MIBI) SPECT myocardial study underestimates reversible ischemia in patients with fixed perfusion defects compared with a 24-hour thallium-201 (Tl-201) study. The short- and intermediate-term outcome with or without Tl-201 rev...
