Coronary Artery Disease, Myocardial Ischemia

Brief summary

We propose a single-scan two-injection myocardial perfusion imaging protocol using ammonia. Subjects will undergo single-scan two-injection imaging as well as regular stress single-scan single-injection protocol and the myocardial blood flow of both techniques will be compared.
