Quantitative PET MPI Unmasks Hidden Coronary Microvascular Risk

Quantitative PET myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) can detect microvascular disease and diffuse atherosclerosis missed by angiography, offering superior risk stratification in CAD patients including those with diabetes or persistent angina post-revascularization. Free RSNA webi…
