Left Ventricular Strain from Myocardial Perfusion PET Imaging: Method Development and Comparison to 2-Dimensional Echocardiography

Conclusion: Strain measured with PET MPI using an automated technique correlated well with resting GLS strain obtained by TTE, and the measure is reproducible. Strain from PET MPI should be investigated further to establish reference ranges and assess its value in routine clinical practice.
