- Title
The often-overlooked elements of #PatientFirst imaging: Focus on optimal quality, including up-to-date protocols and equipment.
- Abstract
Stress-First/Stress-Only Since the majority of MPI studies in most laboratories are normal, stress-first/stress-only imaging is encouraged.[4] Stress-only MPI imaging reduces radiation substantially; improves patient convenience; and, in these pandemic days, enhances social distancing. Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) myocardial perfusion imaging guidelines: Instrumentation, acquisition, processing, and interpretation. Graph: Randall C. Thompson, MD, MASNC Over the past few months, ASNC has issued a number of communications stressing the importance of maintaining a patient-first approach to cardiovascular imaging, particularly in the current multimodality era.[1],[2] At the ASNC2021 Annual Scientific Session and Exhibition, numerous lectures and sessions highlighted I how to i deliver patient-first care in contemporary practice.
