Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
In a pilot group, myocardial blood flow (MBF) determined by MRI will be compared with 15O-H2O PET to determine whether there are systematic errors in MBF. If a systematic error in MBF is found in the pilot group, a correction formula will be calculated and validated in a different group (validation group).
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
(1) Myocardial perfusion reserve (MPR) will be compared between quantitative myocardial perfusion MRI and 15O-H2O PET. (2) Diagnostic value of MBF and MPR determined by quantitative myocardial perfusion MRI will be investigated using coronary angiography, fractional flow reserve (FFR) and instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) as references, in patients undergoing coronary angiography.
