Global and segmental absolute stress myocardial blood flow in prediction of cardiac events: [ 15 O] water positron emission tomography study
Esa Harjulahti,Teemu Maaniitty,Wail Nammas,Iida Stenström,Fausto Biancari,Fausto Biancari,Jeroen J. Bax,Juhani Knuuti,Antti Saraste +8 more
TL;DR: In symptomatic patients evaluated for suspected obstructive CAD, reduced global sMBF by [15O] water PET identifies those at the highest risk of adverse cardiac events, whereas segmental reduction of sMBFs combined with preserved global MBF is associated with an intermediate event risk.

Rodolfo P. Lustosa,Federico Fortuni,Pieter van der Bijl,Mohammed El Mahdiui,José M. Montero-Cabezas,Marina V Kostyukevich,Juhani Knuuti,Nina Ajmone Marsan,Victoria Delgado,Jeroen J. Bax +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the evolution of global left ventricular myocardial work indices (GLVMWI) in STEMI patients from baseline (index infarct) to 3 months' follow-up.

Diagnostic value of transluminal attenuation gradient for the presence of ischemia as defined by fractional flow reserve and quantitative positron emission tomography
Michiel J. Bom,Roel S. Driessen,Wijnand J. Stuijfzand,Pieter G. Raijmakers,Cornelis van Kuijk,Adriaan A. Lammertsma,Albert C. van Rossum,Niels van Royen,Juhani Knuuti,Maija Mäki,Koen Nieman,James K. Min,Jonathon Leipsic,Ibrahim Danad,Paul Knaapen +14 more
TL;DR: In addition to anatomical information obtained by coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA), functional CT-parameters have been proposed to more accurately identify hemodynamically significant lesions, e.g. transluminal attenuation gradient (TAG), corrected contrast opacification (CCO), and others.

PET myocardial perfusion quantification: anatomy of a spreading functional technique
Luis Eduardo Juarez-Orozco,J. R. Cruz-Mendoza,G. Y. Guinto-Nishimura,L. Walls-Laguarda,L. J. Casares-Echeverría,A. Meave-Gonzalez,Juhani Knuuti,Erick Alexanderson +7 more
TL;DR: PET myocardial perfusion represents an excellent noninvasive technique for the evaluation of known or suspected ischemic heart disease, and its clinical application should widen in the near future.
