Tc-99m sestamibi Myocardial Perfusion Gated Spect Normal Ventricular Volumes

            Volumes are significantly higher in men inversely compared to ejection fraction (p < 0.00005). These values are similar to other found in the literature and can be used without normalization in clinical practice. It is also useful to calculate a volume index, normalizing to body surface.
