Myocardial Function Recovery Prediction Post Primary PCI Using the Estimate of Myocardial Salvage in Gated SPECT Early After Acute Myocardial Infarction

April 28, 2026 updated by: Ebraam Thabet Amin Faheem, Fayoum University
Our aim was to correlate functional and perfusion abnormalities early post primary percutaneous coronary intervention after acute myocardial infarction in ST elevation myocardial infarction patients to estimate myocardial salvage, and to predict left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) recovery and remodeling in gated SPECT at follow-up.
