Motion imaging

Exercise imaging is load imaging, just like the "exercise test" of electrocardiogram. It is a method of imaging the distribution information of nuclide imaging agents in target organs (mainly the heart) under load. As far as the heart is concerned, there are cardiac blood pool gate control imaging and myocardial gating imaging; myocardial and cardiac blood pool tomography; cardiac and cardiac blood pool gate control imaging. The latter is difficult to be widely used due to the large amount of information, troublesome processing and large amount of data storage. At present, the most commonly used are “cardiac blood pool gated planar imaging” and “myocardial blood flow perfusion tomography”. These two sets of data plus exercise and resting controls are comprehensive enough, and the use of drug controls can provide some effective parameters, such as the determination of recoverable myocardial cells (viable myocardium) of myocardial infarction, which is of clinical value.
