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?
