Which forms of medical imaging would be used to show a blockage in an artery of the heart?
A patient is given the choice between MRI and PET to diagnose their heart
condition.
Briefly describe how each imaging modality is used.
Compare each imaging technique by identifying their advantages and
disadvantages.
Is it possible to improve the diagnostic information (better resolution, more
information, etc.) that can be gathered from either of these modalities?
