Background The aim of this study was to assess the value of contrast-enhanced cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) in viability for patients with coronary artery disease and left ventricular (LV) dysfunction (ejection fraction [EF] = 50% maximal Tl-201 activity) and CMR (>= 50% DE) was 96.8% (kappa = 0.62). CMR detected more subendocardial scars in 18 subjects (60 segments). Reduced Tl-201 activity but none DE were observed in 19 subjects (76 segments; more inferior) who had lower EF and larger end-systolic volume (p < 0.05). Of 411 dysfunctional segments from 46 patients, FDG-PET (>= 50% of maximal FDG uptake) detected more viability (9%).Conclusion The extent of DE correlated Tl-201 activity well. CMR could detect more small infarcts, while FDG-PET could detect more viability. CMR could distinguish between artifacts or infarction on SPECT, especially in poor LV function.
