1 Instrumental validation of percutaneous transmyocardial revascularization: follow-up data at one year  Alessandro S Bortone, MD, PhD, Donato D’Agostino, MD, Stefano Schena, MD, Giuseppe Rubini, MD, Maurizio Viecca, MD, Vito Sardaro, MD, Antonella Tucci, MD, Luigi de Luca Tupputi Schinosa, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 70, Issue 3, Pages (September 2000) DOI: /S (00)

2 Fig 1 (A) 99mTc-Sestamibi at rest (CCS angina class IV); the white arrow indicates perfusion defects in a myocardial segment. (B) 99mTc-Sestamibi rest versus stress, in the same patient, 12 months following PTMR. A white arrow shows the absence of perfusion defects in the treated segment both at rest and at the peak of the stress test. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (00) )

3 Fig 2 Transthoracic echocardiography evaluation with automatic border detection and left ventricular Doppler flow, before and after PTMR, showing the improvement of (A) myocardial contractility at the peak of systolic flow (white arrow) and (B) the end-systolic subendocardial layer thickness before and 7 days after the treatment.
