Myocardial Contrast Echocardiography Yields Best Accuracy Using Quantitative Analysis of Digital Data from Pulse Inversion Technique: Comparison with Second Harmonic Imaging and Harmonic Power Doppler During Simultaneous Dipyridamole Stress SPECT Studies

Abstract

Myocardial contrast echocardiography should be analysed using densitometry of digital data. The new technique pulse inversion demonstrates best agreement with SPECT data.
