Interpretive intra- and interobserver reproducibility of rest/stress 99Tcm-sestamibi myocardial perfusion SPECT in a consecutive group of male patients with stable angina pectoris before and after percutaneous transluminal angioplastyA Johansen
Department of Nuclear Medicine, Odense University Hospital, Denmark
Nucl Med Commun 22:531-7. 2001..Observer variability of 99Tcm-sestamibi myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) has rarely been investigated. The aim of our study was to evaluate the interpretive reproducibility with this technique...
Prognostic value of myocardial perfusion imaging in patients with known or suspected stable angina pectoris: evaluation in a setting in which myocardial perfusion imaging did not influence the choice of treatmentAllan Johansen
Department of Nuclear Medicine, Odense University Hospital, Odense, Denmark
Clin Physiol Funct Imaging 26:288-95. 2006..We wanted to examine the prognostic value of MPI in patients with known or suspected stable angina in a setting in which MPI could not influence the diagnostic and therapeutic strategy...
To what degree is amelioration of angina following coronary revascularization associated with improvement in myocardial perfusion?Allan Johansen
Department of Nuclear Medicine, Odense University Hospital, Odense, Denmark
Clin Physiol Funct Imaging 26:263-70. 2006..To examine the association between changes in chest pain and changes in perfusion following revascularization as assessed by clinical evaluation and myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) in patients with stable angina...
Diagnostic accuracy of myocardial perfusion imaging in a study population without post-test referral biasAllan Johansen
Department of Nuclear Medicine, Odense University Hospital, Sdr Boulevard 29, DK 5000 Odense C, Denmark
J Nucl Cardiol 12:530-7. 2005..In this way, patients with a normal MPI result less frequently underwent catheterization, a tendency supposed to cause an underestimation of test specificity and an overestimation of test sensitivity...
Use of myocardial perfusion imaging to predict the effectiveness of coronary revascularisation in patients with stable angina pectorisAllan Johansen
Department of Clinical Physiology and Nuclear Medicine, Odense University Hospital, Odense, Denmark
Eur J Nucl Med Mol Imaging 32:1363-70. 2005..Therefore it was the aim of this study to examine the effect of revascularisation on stable angina in relation to the myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) pattern prior to intervention...
Observer variability in the evaluation of dual-isotope Tl-201/Tc-99m sestamibi rest/stress myocardial perfusion SPECT in men and women with known or suspected stable angina pectorisAllan Johansen
Department of Nuclear Medicine, Odense University Hospital, Sdr Boulevard 29, DK 5000 Odense C, Denmark
J Nucl Cardiol 11:710-8. 2004..Observer variability of dual-isotope myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) with single photon emission computed tomography has rarely been investigated. The aim of our study was to evaluate the interpretive reproducibility with this technique...
Scatter and attenuation correction changes interpretation of gated myocardial perfusion imagingAllan Johansen
Department of Nuclear Medicine, Odense University Hospital, 5000, Odense C, Denmark
Eur J Nucl Med Mol Imaging 31:1152-9. 2004..In all but one case, the shift was from abnormal to normal, mostly because of a different interpretation in the RCA territory...
Myocardial perfusion imaging and coronary angiography in patients with known or suspected stable angina pectorisA H Johansen
Department of Nuclear Medicine and Department of Cardiology, Odense University Hospital, DK 5000 Odense C, Denmark
Dan Med Bull 48:80-3. 2001..The patho-physiological cause of angina pectoris is myocardial ischaemia, which can be objectified by myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI)...
Usefulness of the exercise electrocardiogram in diagnosing ischemic or coronary heart disease in patients with chest painPoul Flemming Høilund-Carlsen
Department of Nuclear Medicine, Odense University Hospital, Odense, Denmark
Am J Cardiol 95:96-9. 2005..Sensitivities were considerably lower in women than in men. Exercise electrocardiographic findings were normal in 50% of women and 25% of men who had reversible perfusion defects...
Potential impact of myocardial perfusion scintigraphy as gatekeeper for invasive examination and treatment in patients with stable angina pectoris: observational study without post-test referral biasPoul F Høilund-Carlsen
Department of Nuclear Medicine, Odense University Hospital, Odense, Denmark
Eur Heart J 27:29-34. 2006..To evaluate the impact of using myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS) as gatekeeper for coronary angiography and revascularization in stable angina pectoris...
Observer reproducibility and validity of systems for clinical classification of angina pectoris: comparison with radionuclide imaging and coronary angiographyHenrik Wulff Christensen
Nordic Institute of Chiropractic and Clinical Biomechanics, Odense, Denmark
Clin Physiol Funct Imaging 26:26-31. 2006..To assess reproducibility and validity of clinical classification of angina pectoris (AP) patients...
Improvement of risk-stratification by use of a new combination of Holter variables in survivors of myocardial infarctionAxel Vittrup
Department of Cardiology, Odense University Hospital, Odense, Denmark
Scand Cardiovasc J 36:282-6. 2002..We investigated if a combination of different Holter variables could optimize risk-stratification...
High probability of disease in angina pectoris patients: is clinical estimation reliable?Poul F Høilund-Carlsen
Department of Nuclear Medicine, Odense University Hospital, Odense, Denmark
Can J Cardiol 23:641-7. 2007..According to most current guidelines, stable angina pectoris patients with a high probability of having coronary artery disease can be reliably identified clinically...
