Abstract

Lower myocardial perfusion, assessed non-invasively as the subendocardial viability ratio (SEVR), is associated with greater cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. Waist circumference (WC) and body mass index (BMI) are two metrics associated with CVD risk, yet less is known if these factors are associated with SEVR. We hypothesized a higher WC and BMI will be correlated with a lower SEVR.
