  • * Data (continuous variables) are presented as medians, with interquartile ranges in parentheses.

  • Calculated as stress LVEF minus rest LVEF.

  • High-risk CAD vs. 1- or 2-vessel-disease patients.

  • EDV = end-diastolic volume; LV = left ventricular; SRS = summed stress score; SSS = summed stress score; SDS = summed difference score.
