Résumé
Upper reference limits for transient ischemic dilation (TID) have not been rigorously established for cadmium-zinc-telluride (CZT) camera systems. We aimed to derive TID limits for common myocardial perfusion imaging protocols utilizing a large, multicenter registry (REFINE SPECT). One thousand six hundred and seventy-two patients with low likelihood of coronary artery disease with normal perfusion findings were identified. Images were processed with Quantitative Perfusion SPECT software (Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA). Non-attenuation-corrected, camera-, radiotracer-, and stress protocol-specific TID limits in supine position were derived from 97.5th percentile and mean + 2 standard deviations (SD). Reference limits were compared for different solid-state cameras (D-SPECT vs. Discovery), radiotracers (technetium-99m-sestamibi vs. tetrofosmin), different types of stress (exercise vs. four different vasodilator-based protocols), and different vasodilator-based protocols. TID measurements did not follow Gaussian distribution in six out of eight subgroups. TID limits ranged from 1.18 to 1.52 (97.5th percentile) and 1.18 to 1.39 (mean + 2SD). No difference was noted between D-SPECT and Discovery cameras (P = 0.71) while differences between exercise and vasodilator-based protocols (adenosine, regadenoson, or regadenoson-walk) were noted (all P < 0.05). We used a multicenter registry to establish camera-, radiotracer-, and protocol-specific upper reference limits of TID for supine position on CZT camera systems. Reference limits did not differ between D-SPECT and Discovery camera.

BACKGROUND
Upper reference limits for transient ischemic dilation (TID) have not been rigorously established for cadmium-zinc-telluride (CZT) camera systems. We aimed to derive TID limits for common myocardial perfusion imaging protocols utilizing a large, multicenter registry (REFINE SPECT).
METHODS
One thousand six hundred and seventy-two patients with low likelihood of coronary artery disease with normal perfusion findings were identified. Images were processed with Quantitative Perfusion SPECT software (Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA). Non-attenuation-corrected, camera-, radiotracer-, and stress protocol-specific TID limits in supine position were derived from 97.5th percentile and mean + 2 standard deviations (SD). Reference limits were compared for different solid-state cameras (D-SPECT vs. Discovery), radiotracers (technetium-99m-sestamibi vs. tetrofosmin), different types of stress (exercise vs. four different vasodilator-based protocols), and different vasodilator-based protocols.
RESULTS
TID measurements did not follow Gaussian distribution in six out of eight subgroups. TID limits ranged from 1.18 to 1.52 (97.5th percentile) and 1.18 to 1.39 (mean + 2SD). No difference was noted between D-SPECT and Discovery cameras (P = 0.71) while differences between exercise and vasodilator-based protocols (adenosine, regadenoson, or regadenoson-walk) were noted (all P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
We used a multicenter registry to establish camera-, radiotracer-, and protocol-specific upper reference limits of TID for supine position on CZT camera systems. Reference limits did not differ between D-SPECT and Discovery camera.
