  • * Comparison of PET and NC.

  • Comparison of PET and AC.

  • NC = nonattenuation-corrected SPECT rest study; AC = attenuation-corrected SPECT rest study; % = studies normalized to segment with maximum flow (PET) or uptake (SPECT); MD = mean difference; NS = not significant.

    Data are given as mean of 23 studies ± SD.
