By the way, he had this test done for the first time at the Heart Institute as opposed to the General Hospital where I normally go. The tech was amazing. He used my port and pulled blood out of it to mix with the radioactive agent and let that stand awhile (with non clotting additive) before re-injecting it into me. He said that the results would be much more accurate. The equipment was different and more advanced as well. I hope I can go there in the future. At the General the tech's refuse to use the port and it is not nearly as professional.
