We present a multi-slice cine first-pass perfusion
imaging method capable of simultaneous detection of
stress-induced myocardial perfusion defects and wall
motion abnormalities in a single ungated scan using a
1-minute continuous acquisition. Our initial results in
ischemic canines demonstrate that worsening of wall
motion (compared to rest) in the perfusion defect
territories seen in the real-time stress cine perfusion
scan may be a marker of severe (high grade) coronary
artery disease.
