- Our understanding of the role of bottom-current and associated oceanographic processes (as overflows, barotropic currents, tides or intermittent processes like giant vertical eddies, deep sea storms, horizontal vortices, internal waves and tsunamis) is rapidly improving. But, most of these oceanographic deep-water processes remains poorly understood and have been rarely observed but believed to be capable of generating depositional and erosional features in many contexts at both short and long term. In present compilation we described these oceanographic processes including examples or their potential role in the sedimentation processes around the Iberia margin. Importance of these processes is highlighted and its implication discussed to demonstrate that these oceanographic processes are very important is affecting the shape and evolution of the Iberian continental margin and adjacent oceanic basins although is not still considered as important as other factors as mass-transport deposits and turbiditic processes. To have a better understanding on the implication of all these oceanographic processes connections have to be made between (contourite) sea-floor features, their spatial and temporal evolution, and the near-bottom flows that form them. The only way to achieve that in next decades is by a more intensive collaboration between specialist from Geology, Oceanography and Benthic Biology in new multi-disciplinary studies. Consequently, further multi-disciplinary approach uses oceanographic data, sea-floor morphology, sediments and seismic characterization will be essential for improve our knowledge of these permanent and intermittent processes around Iberia and evaluate their conceptual and regional role in the margins evolution over time and space.

- Purpose: To evaluate the diagnostic performance of three different cardiac stress protocols for myo-cardial perfusion imaging (MPI) using a cadmium-zinc-telluride (CZT) camera with invasive coronary angiography (ICA) correlation for the diagnosis of coronary artery disease in a high risk population. Methods: Retrospective study of 263 patients (96 women and 167 males, mean age 68 years) from which 119 patients performed a bicycle stress test (BST), 113 pharmacological stress test (PST) and 31 a com-bination of the two (CST) between September 2014 and December 2018. The patients then underwent myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI), followed by ICA and evaluated by means of quantitative angio-graphy software, within six months after the MPI. The mean pre-test probability score for coronary disease according to the European Society of Cardiology criteria was 36% for the whole population. The MPI was performed in a dedicated CZT cardio camera (D-SPECT Spectrum Dynamics) with a two-day protocol, according to the European Association of Nuclear Medicine guidelines.Results: No significant difference was observed between the three stress protocols in terms of diagnostic accuracy (BST 85%, PST 88% and CST 84%). The overall diagnostic accuracy of MPI to identify patients with any obstructive CAD at ICA was 86%, Sensitivity 93%, Specificity 54%, PPV 90% and NPV 63%.Conclusion: The CZT D-SPECT camera achieves overall satisfactory results in the diagnosis of CAD, obser-ving no significant differences in the diagnostic performance when the stress test was performed as a BST, PST or CST.& COPY; 2023 Sociedad Espanola de Medicina Nuclear e Imagen Molecular.
