Figure 2. Static stress perfusion cardiac computed tomography (CT) imaging in a 40-year-old male with chest discomfort. Short-axis multiplanar reformatted images of cardiac CT acquired at stress (A) and rest (B) show reversible subendocardial perfusion defects in the mid lateral, inferior, and inferoseptal left ventricular (LV) walls (arrowheads). Cardiovascular magnetic resonance perfusion imaging acquired at stress (C) and delayed contrast enhancement (D) show subendocardial myocardial infarction at the mid inferolateral and inferior LV wall (D, arrowheads), and peri-infarction ischemia in the mid lateral, inferior and inferoseptal LV wall (C, arrowheads). Stress perfusion CMR is superior to stress perfusion cardiac CT for the depiction of stress induced myocardial perfusion defects.
