About this episode

Clinical Quantification of Myocardial Blood Flow Using PET

 

Guest: Panithaya Chareonthaitawee, M.D.

Hosts: Malcolm R. Bell, M.D.

 

In this podcast, we will describe the clinical applications of PET MBF quantitation and discuss the strengths and limitations of PET MBF quantification.

 

Topics Discussed:

  • Why has PET myocardial perfusion imaging seen such growth?
  • You mentioned the ability of PET to measure myocardial blood flow. Why is this crucial?
  • So, should myocardial blood flow measurement be standard in all PET MPI studies? Does it require special equipment or extra time?
  • Are there specific values to remember for PET flow quantification?
