Short Axis-annotated
The PET findings reveal a normal resting myocardial perfusion. There is a moderate stress induced worsening of perfusion involving the mid and distal anterior and anteroseptal walls (arrows), as well as the apex. The PET findings are consistent with the presence of a hemodynamically significant LAD stenosis past the diagonal branch.

Polar Maps
The polar maps confirm the stress induced worsening of perfusion in the LAD territory.
