In ANOCA patients MBV is diminished at baseline, during hyperinsulinemia and dobutamine-induced stress in the absence of differences in microvascular recruitment. These findings support the presence of capillary rarefaction in ANOCA patients. ANOCA patients showed metabolic insulin resistance, but insulin did not acutely alter myocardial perfusion.
