Spontaneous variability of complex ventricular arrhythmias detected by long-term electrocardiographic recording.

abstract：:The two new 99m (99mTc) labeled myocardial perfusion agents, 99mTc-Sestamibi and 99mTc-Teboroxime, are now available for routine clinical application. Both agents allow assessment of ejection fraction by the first-pass technique at rest or during exercise, thus providing additional information not available with thall...
