Overview

Brief Summary

Coronary heart disease is a very common condition caused by narrowings in the blood vessel supplying the heart. the investigators are studying new tests to diagnose heart disease. In this study the investigators plan to investigate a special scan called a PET/CT (Positron emission tomography/computed tomography) and a new type of CT (Computed tomography) scan to tell us about the flow of blood to the heart muscle.

Detailed Description

Participants will undergo PET/CT with oxygen-15 labelled water and computed tomography myocardial perfusion imaging.
