Diagnostic accuracy of low-dose myocardial perfusion imaging in a real-world setting
Background
This large-scale study analyzes factors affecting the diagnostic accuracy of low-dose myocardial perfusion imaging and correlation with coronary angiography in a real-world practice.
Methods
We compared data extracted from routine reports of (i) low-dose [99mTc]sestamibi stress-MPI performed with no attenuation correction and predominantly exercise stress testing and (ii) the corresponding coronary angiography.
Results
We considered 1070 pairs of coronary angiography/stress-MPI results reported by 11 physicians. Mean MPI effective dose was 4.5 ± 2.1 mSv. The extent of MPI-ischemia was predictive of >70% but not 50%–70% coronary stenoses. A positive test was associated with a sensitivity of 74.7% (413/553) and a specificity of 53.2% (275/517) for >70% stenosis detection. Positive predictive values were lower in patients with left bundle branch block or pacemakers (LBBB/PM) (45.6% vs 64.7%, P = .006) and markedly higher for patients with MPI-ischemia ≥3 segments or associated with ST-segment depression (75.0% (165/220)) as compared to those with <3 segments MPI-ischemia, MPI-infarction or isolated ST-segment depression (57% (248.0/435), P < .001). Negative predictive values were lower for patients with previous coronary artery disease (CAD) history (58.3%), male (61.0%), and elderly patients (59.6%) (vs 72.1%, 79.2%, and 72.4%, respectively, all P < .05).
Conclusions
Routine results from low-dose stress-MPI, predominantly associated with exercise stress testing and uncorrected for attenuation, correlate with real-world coronary angiography results. However, this correlation is lower than that achieved with conventional study designs and affected by the definition of significant CAD and context variables (LBBB/PM, CAD history, sex, and age). Better consideration of these interacting factors could improve patient monitoring.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Nuclear Cardiology is the only journal in the world devoted to this dynamic and growing subspecialty. Physicians and technologists value the Journal not only for its peer-reviewed articles, but also for its timely discussions about the current and future role of nuclear cardiology. Original articles address all aspects of nuclear cardiology, including interpretation, diagnosis, imaging equipment, and use of radiopharmaceuticals. As the official publication of the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology, the Journal also brings readers the latest information emerging from the Society''s task forces and publishes guidelines and position papers as they are adopted.
