The aim of this study was to validate attenuation correction (AC) using low-dose standard CT
for myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) on a novel ultra fast γ-camera with cadmium-zinc …

Introduction Computed tomography (CT)-based attenuation correction (AC) improves the
accuracy of standard myocardial perfusion SPECT. Most dedicated cadmium-zinc-telluride …

There is increasing concern about radiation exposure from myocardial perfusion SPECT
(MPS). γ-cameras with solid-state cadmium-zinc-telluride (CZT) detectors have better count …

We aimed at establishing the optimal scan time for nuclear myocardial perfusion imaging
(MPI) on an ultrafast cardiac γ-camera using a novel cadmium-zinc-telluride (CZT) solid …

Objective: Attenuation artifacts adversely affect the diagnostic accuracy of myocardial
perfusion imaging. We assessed the clinical usefulness of X-ray CT based attenuation …

Purpose In clinical routine, attenuation correction (AC) using X-ray CT is a relatively new
method for reducing attenuation artefacts. We evaluated the quality of attenuation maps …

Purpose The aim of this study was to assess the ability of real-time breath-hold-triggered
myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) using a novel cadmium-zinc-telluride (CZT) gamma …

Background Attenuation correction (AC) improves the diagnostic outcome of stress-only
myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) using conventional SPECT. Our aim was to determine …

Purpose Computed tomography attenuation correction (CT-AC) may improve the image
quality and diagnostic accuracy of myocardial perfusion imaging. We evaluated the …

Abstract Background For SPECT, CT-based attenuation correction is preferred. Many
different models of CT are available with SPECT/CT systems. Our study compares clinical …
