A MGIB scan, or Myocardial Gated Imaging with Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT), is a nuclear imaging technique used to assess the heart's function and blood flow. It involves the injection of a radioactive tracer and capturing images of the heart while it is at rest and during stress. This scan helps diagnose conditions such as coronary artery disease and evaluates heart muscle viability. The gated aspect refers to the synchronization of image acquisition with the heart's electrical activity, providing detailed information about cardiac performance.
