- Abstract
Perfusion abnormalities seen on stress images that correct on rest-imaging are often referred to as "ischemia" while rest-imaging perfusion deficits are typically referred to as "scar". Serial myocardial perfusion imaging can reveal both extent of myocardial perfusion deficits as well as changes that occur in myocardial perfusion over time including the transition from ischemia to scar. 2021: Image 5 result: Progression of myocardial ischemia to scar on serial 99mTc-sestamibi myocardial perfusion imaging.
