Abstract

Background and Aims : More than half of patients with non-obstructive coronary artery disease (NOCAD) can suffer from microvascular dysfunction (MD). Dyslipidemia can play important role in the pathogenesis of MD. However, the available data regarding lipid levels and myocardial perfusion imaging are different and controversial. The aim of the study was to assess the relationships between myocardial blood flow (MBF) and myocardial flow reserve (MFR) derived by dynamic SPECT and lipid levels in patients with NOCAD.
