Abstract

Assessment of right ventricular (RV) function and volumes is critical for planning of advanced heart failure (HF) therapies, but it is often difficult and imprecise, particularly in HF patients after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation. The goal of the study was to test performance of quantitative 3-dimensional gated blood-pool single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging of the right ventricle using novel high-resolution SPECT camera.
