Figure 1

Evaluation of the relations between radiation dose and myocardial metabolic disorder. Normalization was applied on the mean of single photon emission computed tomography counts in regions of the myocardium receiving less than 5 Gy (red arrow). Relative values in each dose region (interval of 5 Gy) were calculated on the basis of this normalization for each patient. The reduction in the percent of relative values was calculated.
