Population

4 dogs undergoing 12 experiments under baseline, hyperemic, and low-flow conditions

Intervention

13N-ammonia PET imaging with reoriented short-axis frames and tracer kinetic modeling

Comparator

Microspheres administered into the left atrium

Outcome

Regional myocardial blood flowsurrogate

Regional myocardial blood flow can be accurately measured noninvasively using serially acquired and reoriented short-axis 13N-ammonia PET images, overcoming limitations of transaxial images.
