In Poland, in 2021, cardiac scintigraphy was performed in 39 classic nuclear medicine centers and 14 PET centers, using modern equipment, in approximately 1/1000 inhabitants per year. Polish nuclear cardiology is based on classical nuclear medicine. Almost 99% of the tests are stress and rest myocardial perfusion studies. PET has limited practical use (< 1% of cardiac studies).
