Abstract: This study aimed to assess and compare the efficiency of non-invasive imaging modalities in detecting myocardial ischemia in patients with suspected stable angina as easy-to-understand indices. Our study included 1000 patients with chest pain and possible stable myocardial ischemia. The modalities to be assessed were cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI), single-photon emission computed tomography, positron emission computed tomography (PET), stress echocardiography, and fractional flow reserve derived from coronary computed tomography angiography (FFRCT). As a simulation study, we assumed that all five imaging modalities were performed on these patients, and a decision tree analysis was conducted. From the results, the following efficiencies were assessed and compared: (1) number of true positive (TP), false positive (FP), false negative (FN), and true negative (TN) test results; (2) positive predictive value (PPV); (3) negative predictive value (NPV); (4) post-test probability; (5) diagnostic accuracy (DA); and (6) number needed to diagnose (NND). In the basic settings (pre-test probability: 30%), PET generated the highest TP (267) and NPV (95%, 95% confidence interval (CI): 93-96%). In contrast, CMRI produced the highest TN (616), PPV (76%, 95% CI: 71-80%), and DA (88%, 95% CI: 86-90%) and the lowest NND (1.33, 95% CI: 1.24-1.47). Although FFRCT generated the highest TP (267) and lowest FN (33), it generated the highest FP (168). In terms of detecting myocardial ischemia, compared with the other modalities, PET and CMRI were more efficient. The results of our study might be helpful for both patients and medical professionals associated with their examination.
