Abstract
- Cadmium-zinc-telluride (CZT) SPECT/CT cameras with large field of view offer a higher sensitivity than conventional Anger cameras. This prospective study aimed to determine the equivalence between a conventional protocol and a reduced acquisition time protocol for 201-Thallium myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) using a whole-body CZT SPECT camera. Stress MPI was obtained for 103 consecutive patients on a DISCOVERY-CZT camera. Images were anonymized and post-processed to simulate a 25% (D75 dataset) and 50% (D50 dataset) decrease in total recorded counts. Concerning the number of segments displaying a tracer uptake
