First-pass evaluation of myocardial output during dipyridamole stress using turbo-FLASH magnetic resonance imaging.

abstract：OBJECTIVES:The incidence of coronary artery disease has been shown to be greater in patients with calcific deposits than in those without. It has been suggested that the pattern of distribution of coronary calcific deposits within coronary arteries is of greater predictive value for acute coronary events than the overa...
