Abstract

We present a case of CAD with anteroseptal MI after stent insertion for revascularization due to symptoms presented. MPI with dynamic SPECT/CT provided useful information in terms of flow parameters and matched territories of stenting results as well as providing coronary artery flow phenomenon underwent PCI. In this case, dynamic SPECT/CT may minimize errors with proper stents treatment, especially for controversial MPI results.

Keywords: coronary artery disease; dynamic SPECT/CT; myocardial infarction; myocardial perfusion imaging; percutaneous coronary intervention.
