“…Myocardial perfusion imaging should be assessed in patients with diabetes mellitus and previous history of coronary artery disease (CAD) as well as increased risk for ACS because the diagnostic performance of conventional tests may be limited by these co-morbidities at presentation (26,27) . In particular, female patients may exhibit a higher rate of false-positive tests, often due to labile ST-segment changes, baseline ECG alterations and breast artifact.…”

“…Essas são as principais indicações na fase aguda, com o valor preditivo negativo da CMP alcançando 99%-100% para os pacientes com dor na fase aguda, excluindo o comprometimento ventricular. Ensaios clínicos demonstraram uma efetiva relação custo-benefício nessa conduta, principalmente nos pacientes diabéticos 150 .…”

“…Vários estudos publicados demonstram que indivíduos com uma cintigrafia miocárdica em repouso considerada de baixo risco, realizada de emergência, determina um risco de eventos cardíacos subsequentes bastante reduzido. Por outro lado, pacientes com uma cintigrafia de alto risco tem uma probabilidade muito aumentada de desenvolverem infarto agudo, serem revascularizados (cirurgia ou angioplastia) ou de apresentarem lesões coronárias obstrutivas à coronariografia (119-121;132 for Evalution of Chest Pain), onde foram avaliadas estratégias de atendimento de pacientes com SIMI com ECG normal ou não diagnóstico, ainda na sala de emergência, observou-se taxa de admissão de 54% para os pacientes que realizaram cintigrafia de perfusão miocárdica e de 63% para os outros, sugerindo que a estratégia inicial com estudo cintigráfico ao repouso é um bom estratificador de risco (132).…”
