Society for cardiovascular magnetic resonance expert consensus statement on quantitative myocardial perfusion cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging.

ABSTRACT: Myocardial perfusion imaging plays a central role in the management of patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) and increasingly in patients with suspected ischemia with normal coronary arteries (INOCA) as well as anomalous origins of the coronary arteries and Kawasaki disease. Stress perfusion cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is recognized by international guidelines, with several Class 1 indications for the detection of abnormal myocardial blood flow in these clinical scenarios and offers excellent diagnostic accuracy and independent prognostic value. While visual interpretation of the perfusion data is the prevailing analysis method in clinical practice, quantitative perfusion CMR is at least as accurate for the detection of significant obstructive CAD and p
