Synopsis: Myocardial perfusion imaging is an essential tool for characterising ischemic heart disease. Moreover, quantitative myocardial perfusion methods that provide pixel-wise quantitative myocardial perfusion maps are increasingly being applied as an alternative to visual inspection. Newer methods combine quantitative imaging with acceleration techniques and motion compensation to overcome current limitations of the technique, and thus, improve spatial resolution and heart coverage, reduce image degradation due to motion and accurately detect perfusion defects. In addition, fully automated workflows are facilitating the integration of quantitative myocardial perfusion into clinical practice by making it faster and easier to use.
