AB The  review  and  interpretation  of  myocardial  perfusion  images  are  perhaps  the  key  duty  of  a  nuclear  cardiologist.  It  is  critical  that  image  interpretation  be  performed  in  a  systematic  fashion  so  as  to  maximize  the  clinical  value  of  the  study  and  to  ensure  the  highest-quality  result  of  the  entire  procedure,  providing  optimal  clinical  information  and  assisting  in  clinical  decision  making.  As  discussed  extensively  in  Chapter  5,  the  quality  of  the  study  must  be  reviewed  and  technical  abnormalities  be  recognized.  A  comprehensive  evaluation  of  all  available  imaging  data  must  then  be  performed  so  as  not  to  exclude  potentially  vital  information.
