indagini primo transito

Italian to English Medical Medical: Cardiology Nuclear Medicine
From a CV of a Nuclear Medicine doctor, specialist-facing document, translated to EN from Italian as per regulatory requirements:

"In collaborazione con il Dott. [xxx] ha realizzato un programma di valutazione quantitativa delle indagini di primo transito cardiaco per sistemi Elscint, programma largamente utilizzato in Italia"

I am not sure what "indagini di primo transito cardiaco" means, specifically "primo transito".
Can anyone help?
