A member asked:
What does moderate to severely decreased uptake of the radiopharmaceutical by the inferior-inferolateral wall mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Risk for MI.: This seems to suggest that the defined areas of the heart are at risk for damage. This seems to suggest that a blockage exists to the blood flow to those parts of the heart, which can lead to a heart attack. This needs to be investigated further and treated. You need an angiogram.
