“…The setting was a high-count stress study, and it was concluded that further tests in low-count studies are warranted. Druz et al (5) observed that discharge of implantable cardioverter defibrillators was not associated with residual ischemia on gated SPECT but rather with ongoing LV remodeling, as indicated by lower LV ejection fraction and larger volumes. Finally, Moloo et al (6) evaluated FDG uptake as a marker of plaque inflammation in carotid arteries of patients before endarterectomy.…”
