Resting myocardial blood flow, coronary flow reserve, and contractile reserve in hibernating myocardium: implications for using resting myocardial contrast echocardiography vs. dobutamine echocardiography for the detection of hibernating myocardium

Abstract

Resting MBF but not CFR distinguished HM from non-viable myocardium. Resting MCE and not DSE was more accurate for the prediction of HM.
