Learning outcomes
|
Detailed explanation of nuclear cardiology methods and its current position in the diagnostics of coronary artery disease. Stress techniques used in cardiac gated SPECT imaging. Importance of different kinetics of T1-201 and Tc-99m-labelled compounds (MIBI, tetrofosmin). Indication of myocardial perfusion imaging inclusive of prognostic value of stress study and viability assessment.
Student will be capable to use acquired knowledge in the diagnostic - therapeutic approach to patients with suspected or known coronary artery disease.
