Assessment of Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction by Thallium-201 Myocardial SPECT-CT in Patients with Angina Pectoris: Comparison with 2D Echocardiography

ConclusionLVEF measured by the CTAC method of Tl-201-gated myocardial SPECT/CT was comparable with the conventional non-AC method in patients with angina pectoris and in the subgroup of patients with perfusion abnormality. Tl-201-gated myocardial hybrid SPECT/CT can be a reliable tool in the assessment of LVEF in clinic.
