Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) is one of the most commonly ordered cardiac imaging tests. Accurate motion correction, image registration, and reconstruction are critical for high-quality imaging, but this can be technically challenging and has traditionally relied on expert manual processing. With accurate processing, there is a rich variety of clinical, stress, functional, and anatomic data that can be integrated to guide patient management.
