Tc-99m-MIBI in evaluation of myocardial perfusion [Persian]
Tc-99m-MIBI is an isonrtrile derivative used for evaluation of myocardial perfusion in recent years. In this preliminary report, 7 patients with coronary artery disease are evaluated with Tc-99m-MlBl stress planar and sped studies. Good correlation with coronary angiography is observed in these cases. In view of inherent technical problems present with thallium 201, Tc-99m-MIBi is a good ...

متن کاملAssessment of myocardial perfusion and viability with stress Tc-99m-MIBI SPECT before surgical revascularisation. Correlation with postoperative perfusion improvement.
BACKGROUND The immediate result of successful revascularisation of the myocardium is the improvement of perfusion (and in patients with depressed ventricular function, functional recovery is expected as an effect of coronary flow improvement). The main goal of the work was to assess the value of myocardial stress-rest MIBI perfusion scintigraphy in predicting myocardial perfusion state measured...
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...
متن کاملThe value of myocardial perfusion imaging with Tc-99m MIBI for the prediction of perfusion improvement after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty
Introduction: Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) is an effective method for revascularizing of stenotic coronary vessels. Lack of response to this treatment, either in symptomatic or asymptomatic patients, is usually due to incomplete revascularization, restenosis, and/or irreversibility of myocardial perfusion. Introduction of a noninvasive metho...
