Additive Value of Cardiac Dyssynchrony Parameters using Rest Myocardial Perfusion SPECT in the Diagnosis of Cardiac Sarcoidosis: A Cross-sectional Analytical Study
Cardiac dyssynchrony parameters from gated myocardial perfusion SPECT are higher in sarcoidosis patients when compared to the normal control subjects. The potential role in aiding the diagnosis of early cardiac sarcoidosis should be further investigated. To validate these findings and assess their clinical utility, further research is needed with larger sample sizes, early-stage disease, and elimination of confounding factors.
