Prognostic value of thallium-201 myocardial perfusion imaging. A diagnostic tool comes of age.

Open access
Brown, K A·1991·Circulation

Abstract

D uring the past 10 years, the use of thallium- 201 myocardial perfusion imaging has un- dergone considerable expansion and evalu- ation.Originally conceived as a noninvasive diagnostic tool useful in determining the presence or absence of anatomical coronary artery disease,1-4 201T1 imaging has now been shown to have important prognostic value in a wide spectrum of patients with coronary artery disease.5-49This prognostic value derives from the ability of 201T1 imaging to identify the presence and extent of jeopardized viable myocar- dium.After a brief background discussion, data are reviewed that concern the prognostic value of 201T1 imaging in three primary populations-1) patients presenting with known or suspected coronary artery disease, 2) post-myocardial infarction patients, and 3) patients undergoing noncardiac surgery.Data comparing the prognostic value of 201T1 predictors to other patient variables, including clinical, electrocar- diographic, and angiographic variables, are dis- cussed.Finally, the physiological basis of these ob- servations are examined.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
