Abstract
In the redefined MI patients, perfusion and metabolic abnormalities occurred frequently and more extensively. However, Tl/BMIPP dual SPECT had limited ability to detect minor myocardial infarcts classified as redefined MI. A more sensitive stratification combined with troponin T directed assignment should be established to incorporate the ongoing minor infarcts which could not be assessed by serial dual-scintigraphic evaluations.
