Technical aspects of myocardial SPECT imaging.
Myocardial perfusion SPECT imaging accounts for well over 90% of all myocardial perfusion imaging performed in the United States today. Although clearly superior to the traditional planar technique in terms of image contrast and consequent diagnostic and prognostic yield, the SPECT approach also involves additional acquisition and processing steps. This article concisely describes the entire te...
متن کاملEvaluation of Cardiac Mitochondrial Function by a Nuclear Imaging Technique using Technetium-99m-MIBI Uptake Kinetics
Mitochondria play an important role in energy production for the cell. The proper function of a myocardial cell largely depends on the functional capacity of the mitochondria. Therefore it is necessary to establish a novel and reliable method for a non-invasive assessment of mitochondrial function and metabolism in humans. Although originally designed for evaluating myocardial perfusion, 99mTc...
متن کاملClinical experience with technetium-99m stannous polyphosphate for myocardial imaging.
Myocardial imaging with technetium-99m stannous polyphosphate was performed on 46 patients. Eleven patients had no cardiac disease, 22 had acute myocardial infarction, and 13 had stable arteriosclerotic heart disease. Distinct patterns of myocardial activity were noted: (1) the patients with no obvious cardiac disease showed no cardiac activity; (2) stable arteriosclerotic heart disease showed ...
متن کاملTechnetium-99m-MIBI scintimammography by planar and SPECT imaging in the diagnosis of breast carcinoma and axillary lymph node involvement.
BACKGROUND We compared SPECT and planar (99m)Tc-MIBI scintimammography (SMM) in the detection of primary breast cancer and metastatic axillary lymph node involvement, and the scintigraphic results with the histopathological/cytological findings. MATERIAL AND METHODS 303 consecutive patients with 308 suspicious or indeterminate lesions observed in mammographies were entered in this study. Afte...
متن کاملCorrelation of myocardial Tc 99m-MIBI perfusion SPECT with coronary angiography in Namazi Hospital/Shiraz/Iran [Persian]
Coronary heart disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death specially among elderly. Coronary angiography is the best diagnostic method in the patients, but is unfortunately an invasive procedure with its inherent risks. Myocardial perfusion scan is a noninvasive and sensitive method for evaluation of CAD and is suggested by many investigators in recent years. In this study, 64 patients wh...
