Fig. 1 Slow-flow/Stress/Rest 99mTc-MIBI myocardial perfusion horizontal long axis images obtained in a syndrome X patient with coronary slow-flow. A: slow-flow images reveal a perfusion defect in the antero-septal-apical regions. B: stress images (third row) evidence perfusion defects similar to those observed during slow-flow. Resting images (fourth row) show normalization of tracer distribution. International Journal of Cardiology , DOI: ( /j.ijcard ) Copyright © 2008 Elsevier Ireland Ltd Terms and Conditions

Fig. 2 Kaplan Meier event-free survival curves in slow-flow (continuous line) and control (dotted line) patients. Event-free survival was significantly better in patients without slow-flow (p=0.0041).
