You may qualify if…

• Stratum 1:
• Able to provide written informed consent
• Low (less than 10%) pre-test probability of CAD (Appendix D)
• Scheduled for clinically indicated stress echocardiography or stress SPECT within the 14 days prior to or following Study Day 1 (prior to coronary angiography) or coronary angiography within the 7 days following Study Day 1
• Technically adequate unreconstructed stress SPECT data or scheduled for clinically indicated stress SPECT within 14 days of Study Day 1 and prior to coronary angiography
• Adequate visualization of all myocardial segments in at least one view during non-contrast echocardiography (See Section 5.3.1)
• No evidence of a right-to-left shunt during non-contrast echocardiography
• Stratum 2:
• Able to provide written informed consent
• Intermediate (10% to 90%) pre-test probability of CAD (Appendix D)
• Scheduled for clinically indicated coronary angiography within the 7 days following Study Day 1
• Technically adequate unreconstructed stress SPECT data or scheduled for stress SPECT within 14 days of Study Day 1 and prior to coronary angiography
• Adequate visualization of all myocardial segments in at least one view during non-contrast echocardiography (See Section 5.3.1)
• No evidence of a right-to-left shunt during non-contrast echocardiography
• Stratum 3:
• Able to provide written informed consent
• High (greater than 90%) pre-test probability of CAD (Appendix D)
• Scheduled for clinically indicated coronary angiography within the 7 days following Study Day 1
• Technically adequate unreconstructed stress SPECT data or scheduled for stress SPECT within 14 days of Study Day 1 and prior to coronary angiography
• Adequate visualization of all myocardial segments in at least one view during non-contrast echocardiography (See Section 5.3.1)
• No evidence of a right-to-left shunt during non-contrast echocardiography

You may not qualify if…

• Women who are pregnant or lactating
• Known hypersensitivity or known contraindication to:
• Dipyridamole
• Ultrasound contrast agents (including PB127 and excipients)
• Blood, blood products, albumin, egg, or protein
• Use of caffeine or xanthine containing products within the 24 hours prior to PB127 MCE
• Previous exposure to PB127 Ultrasound Contrast Agent
• Heart transplant
• Known right-to-left shunt including atrial septal defect
• Current or history of uncontrolled ventricular tachycardia
• Current atrial fibrillation, atrial tachycardia, or atrial flutter
• Pacemaker or defibrillator
• Unstable cardiac status
• Unstable angina grade CCS Class IV severity with ongoing symptoms and/or ongoing infusion of intravenous nitroglycerin (See Appendix F)
• Second-degree or greater heart block
• Frequent (>60/hour) or symptomatic ventricular ectopics at baseline
• Hypertension (SPB >200 and/or DBP >110 mmHg on two consecutive readings within one hour of PB127 MCE)
• Hypotension (SPB <90 mmHg)
• Severe aortic stenosis (>100 mmHg peak transvalvar gradient or <0.6 cm2 estimated valve area)
• Pulmonary edema within the 7 days prior to Study Day 1
• Resting oxygen saturation of less than 90%
• Q-wave myocardial infarction within the 7 days prior to Study Day 1
• PTCA or CABG within the 7 days prior to Study Day 1
• Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) or bronchospastic airway disease which, in the opinion of the Investigator, is significant enough to contraindicate dipyridamole
• Known history of severe pulmonary hypertension characterized by estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure of >50 mmHg
