- Abstract
This document provides a comprehensive overview of standardized reporting for PET myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) and myocardial blood flow (MBF). It emphasizes the importance of clear and concise reporting of various elements, including LV perfusion assessment, MBF and MFR measurements, and other relevant findings. The document includes sample reports and case examples, as well as guidelines and templates for structured reporting. It also highlights the significance of considering technical and clinical factors that may affect MBF and MFR values. Additionally, the document provides information on relationships and affiliations of individuals in the medical field, as well as tables with site administrative data, patient demographics, and clinical information. It also includes tables with details on stress testing data, resting ECG data, and imaging parameters. Furthermore, the document describes variables related to the assessment of left ventricular perfusion, myocardial blood flow, and flow reserve measurements. It provides tables with descriptions, data types, priorities, and possible responses for each variable. Lastly, the document includes tables on the interpretation and reporting of various cardiac imaging studies, covering topics such as myocardial flow reserve, LV gated function and volume assessment, right ventricular parameters, coronary artery calcium analysis, miscellaneous data, and overall impression.
