Abstract This case report presents a myocardial perfusion analysis in a 67-year-old asymptomatic male patient with known coronary artery disease (CAD) and multiple risk factors. While myocardial perfusion Imaging (MPI) with single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) revealed a 5% area of ischemia, the myocardial blood flow quantification assessment in a camera equipped with cadmium-zinc-telluride (CZT) detectors demonstrated a reduced global myocardial flow reserve (MFR) of 1.57. Coronary angiography confirmed extensive multivessel disease, including an 80% stenosis in the left anterior […]
