This is a pilot study to see whether cardiac imaging can be performed using half the standard dose of radioisotope.
The aim of this study is to compare the image quality of the half radioisotope dose scans obtained using a CZT (cadmium zinc telluride) camera with scans acquired using a standard of care imaging protocol/radioisotope dose performed on a traditional (conventional) camera.
The proposed strategy of a half dose/extended time protocol with the CZT camera should yield a similar count activity and consequently image quality equivalent to that detected by a conventional SPECT system.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Half-dose isotope for NuclearStressTest | Other | Intervention is Nuclear stress test of the heart. Single-arm of this study "Half-dose of isotope for Nuclear stress test" is group of study subjects who will do Research Nuclear stress test with half-dose of isotope that normally used for routine Nuclear stress test. Isotope is the tracer CZT (cadmium zinc telluride) that used for Nuclear stress test routinely to see the function of arteries of the heart. Patients with suspected Coronary Artery Disease who meet entry criteria undergo a research nuclear stress test using a decreased dose of isotope, using a new camera. |
