Assessment of coronary flow reserve by routine 99mTc-tetrofosmin SPECT: a new method.

Conclusions: Assessment of CFR is feasible with routine 99mTc-tetrofosmin, allowing to decrease the number of false negative SPECT. This method is easy to use on a routine basis, totally reproducible (automatic process ). There is no additional time or cost to the routine SPECT. Sensitivity and specificity are very good for CAD diagnosis.
