Right Ventricular Stress-Induced Perfusion Defects and Late Gadolinium Enhancement in Coronary Artery Disease

Conclusions: Proximal right coronary artery and left anterior descending artery stenoses are positively associated, whereas left circumflex artery stenoses are negatively associated with RV stress-induced perfusion defects. Right ventricular LGE was associated with mortality, but further study is needed to determine whether this is independent of left ventricular LGE.
