Incremental Value of Transthoracic Doppler Echocardiography‐Assessed Coronary Flow Reserve in Patients With Suspected Myocardial Ischemia Undergoing Myocardial Perfusion Scintigraphy

Incremental Value of Transthoracic Doppler Echocardiography‐Assessed Coronary Flow Reserve in Patients With Suspected Myocardial Ischemia Undergoing Myocardial Perfusion Scintigraphy

BackgroundAdenosine‐assisted transthoracic Doppler‐derived coronary flow reserve (TDE‐CFR) reflects coronary vascular function. The prognostic and incremental value of left anterior descending coronary artery TDE‐CFR above myocardial perfusion scintigraphy in patients with suspected myocardial ische...
