Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The main study endpoint is the validation of rest phase MPI-CT against the gold<br /><br>standard of rest phase 15O-water PET-CT.<br /><br>The main parameter we are going to measure is myocardial blood flow (MBF).<br /><br>Myocardial perfusion will be calculated quantitatively by a software as MBF in<br /><br>ml/g/min based on CT acquisitions. MBF is calculated on a per voxel basis by<br /><br>dividing the maximal slope of time-attenuation curve (TAC) by the area under<br /><br>the maximum arterial input function (AIF). The arterial input function is<br /><br>sampled from two regions of interest (ROI) placed separately in the descending<br /><br>aorta with every table position (cranial and caudal) and combined into one<br /><br>arterial input function.<br /><br><br /><br>MBF=(Max Slope TAC)/(Maximum AIF)</p><br>
