Variability of left ventricular functional parameters by setting heartbeat acceptance windows on gated myocardial perfusion SPECT using CZT camera in patients with arrhythmia

Conclusions: We investigated the effects of LV functional parameters by setting different heartbeat acceptance windows using CZT camera in patients with CV and AF. In patients with CV, EDVs were little altered by setting heartbeat acceptance windows of 20% and 40% however ESVs and LVEFs were altered. In patients with AF, all parameters were little altered. Our study suggests that setting heartbeat acceptance window of 20% was suitable in patients with CV.
