AB  - KEY  POINTSHybrid  single-photon  emission  computed  tomography  and  computed  tomography  (SPECT–CT)  and  positron  emission  tomography  computed  tomography  (PET–CT)  imaging  have  grown  tremendously  over  the  last  two  decades.Depending  upon  the  equipment,  the  CT  component  of  SPECT/CT  and  PET/CT  images  is  useful  for  attenuation  correction,  identification  of  coronary  artery  calcification,  CT  coronary  angiography,  or  localization  of  radiotracer  uptake  in  radiopharmaceutically  avid  images.Coronary  artery  calcium  score  when  combined  with  a  myocardial  perfusion  imaging  is  valuable  for  the  management  of  patients  with  suspected  ischemic  heart  disease.Cardiac  PET/MR  provides  simultaneous  PET  and  MR  acquisitions  and  is  currently  used  primarily  for  research  applications.
