Computer-generated attenuation correction does not improve the accuracy of myocardial perfusion scintigraphy

SummaryA short study was performed to determine if it is possible to increase the accuracy of thallium-201 (Tl) single photon emission tomographic myocardial perfusion imaging using computer-generated (Chang) attenuation correction. The stress and rest myocardial perfusion studies from 22 patients w...
