Myocardial Perfusion Imaging in Liver Transplantation Candidates

NCT03864497 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 403

Last updated 2019-06-19

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The optimal screening strategy for assessment of coronary artery disease in patients with end-stage liver disease (ESLD) is unclear. Although consensus based guidelines support noninvasive stress testing prior to orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT), no prospective studies are available to inform the clinician on perioperative risk stratification. This observational cohort study was designed to determine the prognostic utility of single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging in OLT candidates.
