MPI set B Flashcards
Hard event rate for patients with normal MPI
0.7%/yr
This phenomenon is an inherent selection process in which the specificity of a diagnostic test declines over time
Post referral bias
An isolated reversible perfusion defect on the septum may be in the absence of LAD stenosis in this rhythm abnormality
LBBB
This trial suggest that anatomic strategy using CT angiograohy is an acceptable alternative to functioal stress testing
PROMISE trial
This trial showed a 20% relative reduction in unnecessary hospital admission among ACS patients assigned to MPI
ERASE chest pain trial
Normal Stress MPI in a patient with HF and LV dysfunction is highly predictive of the absence of CAD
True
This imaging may allow earlier detection of LVAD infection and evaluation of response to therapy
FDG PET-CT imaging
Imaging of choice for cardiac pacemakers or ICD infection
FDG PET Ct scan
