Myocardial Viability: Detection and Clinical Relevance
Iskandrian, A. E. / Iskandrian, Ami E. / Wall, E. Van Der
In the past few years it has become clear that left ventricular dysfunction, even of severe degree, may be reversible after coronary revascularization in some patients. As a result, myocardial viability has captured the imagination of researchers and clinicians seeking to unravel the cellular and subcellular mechanisms and define appropriate diagnostic modalities. These diagnostic modalities include: cardiac catheterization, positron-emission ...
