1.	Hyperemia 03/01/1977 - "Preliminary studies in 10 dogs with reactive hyperemia were performed with thallium-201 and potassium-43 to determine which tracer was a better indicator of increased flow. "
2.	Infarction (Infarctions) 12/01/1975 - "Thus, in this initial group of patients following transmural infarction, potassium-43 imaging can be accurately and quantitatively correlated with the site and extent of regional ventricular dysfunction as it is assessed by quantitative left ventricular angiography." 10/01/1976 - "Noninvasive myocardial imaging with potassium-43 and rubidium-81 has been used successfully to identify areas of infarction and exercise-induced ischemia as regions of decreased radioactivity. " 03/01/1976 - "The dual radionuclide myocardial distributions of imaging agents potassium-43 (43K) and technetium-99m stannous pyrophosphate (99mTc-PYP) were studied in a 24-hour closed chest canine infarct preparation. "
3.	Myocardial Infarction 12/01/1975 - "Quantitative relationships between potassium-43 imaging and left ventricular cineangiography following myocardial infarction in man." 12/01/1975 - "To evaluate the quantitative relationships between resting potassium-43 (43K) myocardial imaging and left ventricular segmental contraction abnormalities, 15 patients were studied by both radionuclide and contrast angiographic techniques at least two months following transmural myocardial infarction. " 01/01/1977 - "To determine the variables that might affect interpretability of myocardial perfusion images in patients with acute myocardial infarctions, images obtained following intravenous administration of potassium-43 or cesium-129 were evaluated in 68 patients with nonacute coronary or noncoronary heart diseases, who were undergoing cardiac catheterization. "
4.	Ischemia 01/01/1976 - "To assess the validity of myocardial imaging with potassium-43 (43K) early after the onset of ischemia, the left anterior descending artery was occluded with a baloon tip catheter in 32 intact anesthetized dogs. " 10/01/1976 - "Noninvasive myocardial imaging with potassium-43 and rubidium-81 has been used successfully to identify areas of infarction and exercise-induced ischemia as regions of decreased radioactivity. "
5.	Ventricular Dysfunction 12/01/1975 - "Thus, in this initial group of patients following transmural infarction, potassium-43 imaging can be accurately and quantitatively correlated with the site and extent of regional ventricular dysfunction as it is assessed by quantitative left ventricular angiography."
