Quantification of myocardial oxygen consumption using 17O-CMR was validated in this study using microsphere measurements and blood sampling in normal dogs. Further evaluation was performed in dogs with severe coronary artery stenosis. The oxygen consumption rates measured by 17O-CMR strongly agreed with reference values. Increases in oxygen consumption rate in severely ischemic regions reflect increased oxygen extraction to compensate substantial loss in oxygen supply, as expected.
