Nuclear cardiology: a comparison of equilibrium gated blood pool and gamma camera first-pass measurements for the assessment of left-ventricular regional wall motion

DN Taylor, S Choraria, J Mills, J Flint, JA McIntosh and J Pilcher

There are two major problems remaining for the successful assessment of left-ventricular regional wall motion (RWM) using nuclear cardiology. These are as follows. Which technique should be used: first pass or equilibrium? Secondly, which views should be used to give full information about the RWM of the left ventricle? This paper specifically considers each of these questions and concludes that equilibrium blood pool imaging in both the right anterior oblique and left anterior oblique projections is currently the best option.
