Abstract

PET/CT data were reviewed retrospectively for 105 patients referred for evaluation of CAD, who also underwent angiography. % arterial stenosis was determined quantitatively at a core laboratory. Severe stenosis was defined as ≥ 70%, and MVD as 2 or more stenosed arteries. Segmental MBF was calculated from first-pass data for arterial territories. Regional rest and stress systolic and diastolic asynchrony (Asynch) scores were determined from visual examination of phase polar maps.65 vessels had stenoses ≥ 70%. 15 patients had MVD. ROC area under curve (ROC AUC) for identifying patients with MVD was 83% for Asynch and 73% for MFR. ROC AUC for identifying individual arterial territories with stenoses ≥ 70% was 81% and 72% for Asynch and MFR.
