A comparison between quantitative gated myocardial perfusion scintigraphy and strain echocardiography as indicators of ventricular functions in patients with anterior myocardial infarction

The purpose of this study is to compare the strain echocardiographic and scintigraphic parameters for evaluating of the left ventricular (LV) functions in patients with anterior myocardial infarction (MI). Fifty-four patients (male/female: 36/18; mean age 62 ± 13 years) with anterior MI were prospec...
