Fig. 6

The top image shows a schematic representation of the upslope method used to calculate myocardial blood flow. The lower images show a quantitative perfusion map, based on a deconvolution approach using a two-compartment model combined with the shown upslope method, resulting in quantitative MBF values. A perfusion defect, corresponding to the SPECT perfusion images, is visualised showing significantly lower myocardial blood flow values compared to normal myocardium
