Impact of extracorporeal shockwave myocardial revascularization on the ischemic burden of refractory angina patients: a single photon emission computed tomography study.
CONCLUSIONS: In this single-center cohort of RA patients undergoing ESMR treatment and serial myocardial perfusion imaging, ESMR was associated with a significant reduction in the ischemic burden.These findings provide a physiological rationale and mechanism for the observed clinical benefit.
