Özet

Background and aim After successful percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA), stent restenosis is observed in up to 40% of patients during the first year. The aim of this study was to determine the value of myocardial perfusion studies (MPSs) in the detection of stent restenosis in a symptomatic patient cohort.
