Stress myocardial perfusion imaging adds significant diagnostic and prognostic information predicting long-term outcome in patients with diabetes. Our nuclear medicine services consists of:
- Cardiac PET
- Myocardial perfusion studies (Myoview)
- Perfusion imaging
- Pharmacological stress tests
- Ventricular function
