Abbreviation: MPI. The use of radioactive isotopes, such as 201Tl or 99mTc sestamibi, to gauge the blood supply and viability of the regions or walls of the heart. MPI is frequently used to assess patients with coronary artery disease, often in conjunction with exercise tolerance tests. A patient with a coronary artery that is almost totally blocked may take up only a small quantity of radioisotope during exercise but much more of the tracer after several hours of rest.
