- 1. Instituto Cardiovascular de Rosario, Rosario, Santa Fe (Argentina)
Description
We present the imaging of a case of myocardial ischemia caused by obstructive coronary lesions achieved from the fusion of images provided by two complementary techniques: multi-slice coronary tomography and myocardial perfusion studies (SPECT). We mention the benefits of the merger of these techniques for better diagnosis.
