Review of Cardiovascular Imaging in the Journal of Nuclear Cardiology in 2015—Part 2 of 2: Myocardial perfusion imaging

Abstract

In 2015, the Journal of Nuclear Cardiology (®) published many high-quality articles. In this series, we will summarize key articles that have appeared in the Journal last year to provide for the interested reader a quick review of the advancements that have recently occurred in the field. In the first article of this 2-part series, we concentrated on publications dealing with plaque imaging, cardiac positron emission tomography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance. This review will focus on myocardial perfusion imaging summarizing advances in the field including in diagnosis, prognosis, and appropriate use.

Review of cardiovascular imaging in the Journal of Nuclear Cardiology 2020: positron emission tomography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance

“…It has been a tradition to summarize some of the key articles that were published each year. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] This review is dedicated to the colleagues and loved ones we lost during the pandemic, and to the bright minds whose vigorous and endless efforts and dedication transcended all obstacles to provide us with these amazing papers. This review will specifically address articles published in the Journal relating to positron emission tomography (PET), cardiac computed tomography (CT), and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR).…”
