Value of peripheral vascular endothelial function in the detection of relative myocardial ischemia in asymptomatic type 2 diabetic patients who underwent myocardial perfusion imaging

Endothelial function in asymptomatic patients with T2DM is not associated with the presence of relative myocardial ischemia by MPI; however, an EDV of 8% or greater has a high negative predictive value for the exclusion of CAD.
