Roanoke-based Carilion wants to operate its existing mobile PET / CT scanner unit less than a mile from Lewis-Gale in Salem in order to perform a very specific test for coronary artery disease known as myocardial imaging with N13-ammonia. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Computed tomography (CT) scans and nuclear imaging accounted for three-fourths of radiation exposure, with nuclear stress tests to detect coronary heart disease, also known as myocardial perfusion imaging, cited as the procedure accounting for the largest single radiation exposure (22 percent of total effective dose in study participants). ❋ Unknown (2009)

A heart attack (also known as myocardial infarction or MI) occurs when the myocardium, also called the heart muscle, is deprived of part or all of its blood supply as a result of a blockage in one or more of the coronary arteries. ❋ Unknown (2008)

High blood pressure, heart valve disease and heart attacks can lead to a abnormal thickening of the heart muscle, called myocardial hypertrophy. ❋ Unknown (2008)

"Large, long-term comparative studies on major clinical end points, such as myocardial infarction, chronic kidney disease, and cardiovascular mortality, are needed to determine definitively the comparative effects of the oral diabetes agents, especially in light of recent controversy regarding rosiglitazone," the authors concluded. ❋ Unknown (2007)
