Correct spatial normalization of myocardial perfusion SPECT improves detection of multivessel coronary artery disease

This study sought to improve the detection of multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD) with the use of rest and exercise single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) perfusion scintigraphy by developing a processing scheme, which provides proper regional normalization of the images for interp...
