The application of phase analysis of gated myocardial perfusion imaging in cardiac resynchronization therapy

Phase analysis of gated myocardial perfusion imaging(GMPI)can be used to assess left ventricular mechanical dyssynchrony.Potential benefits include its automation,reproducibility,and can receive information of perfusion and prognosis.This paper is to make a view of this method in clinical application of cardiac resynchronization therapy. Key words: Gated myocardial perfusion imaging;  Cardiac resynchronization therapy;  Left ventricular dyssynchrony
