Figure 2.

Representative exercise (Ex) and rest (R) technetium‐99 m‐sestamibi and exercise ¹⁸ F‐fluorodeoxyglucose (¹⁸FDG) images of a patient with angina in the short axis, and vertical and horizontal long axes. This patient had no history of myocardial infarction. A large area of partially reversible perfusion abnormality involving the inferior and lateral walls is seen on the perfusion images. Intense ¹⁸FDG uptake is seen in the areas corresponding to the perfusion abnormalities. On coronary angiography, 100% occlusion of the right coronary artery and a 50% narrowing of the left anterior descending coronary artery were observed. Reproduced with permission from Jain and He.34
