Clinical value of iodine-123 beta-methyliodophenyl pentadecanoic acid (BMIPP) myocardial single photon emission computed tomography for predicting cardiac death among patients with chronic heart failure.
In the present study, the effectiveness of 123I-beta-methyliodophenyl pentadecanoic acid (BMIPP) single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) for predicting cardiac death of patients with chronic heart failure was evaluated. Abnormalities of fatty acid metabolism are found in patients with chronic heart failure and BMIPP was developed as a tracer for scintigraphic assessment of myocardial...
متن کاملMyocardial emission computed tomography with iodine-123-labeled beta-methyl-branched fatty acid in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
We studied whether emission computed tomography (ECT) with 123I-labeled 15-(p-iodophenyl)-3R,S-methylpentadecanoic acid (BMIPP) shows myocardial distribution different from 201Tl in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. In 10 patients with asymmetric septal hypertrophy (ASH), 5 with diffuse hypertrophy and 2 with apical hypertrophy, ECT was acquired 30 min (early) and 4 hr (late) after injection of 123I...
متن کاملAssessment of myocardial perfusion and fatty acid metabolism in a patient with Churg-Strauss syndrome associated with eosinophilic heart disease.
Churg-Strauss syndrome is characterized by asthma, eosinophilia and systemic necrotizing vasculitis; cardiac involvement (ie, eosinophilic heart disease) is the major cause of morbidity and mortality, although there are no reports of an association between left ventricular dysfunction because of eosinophilic heart disease and myocardial blood flow or myocardial fatty acid metabolism. A patient ...
متن کاملIncremental prognostic value of myocardial perfusion single photon emission computed tomography for the prediction of cardiac death: differential stratification for risk of cardiac death and myocardial infarction.
BACKGROUND The incremental prognostic value of stress single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) for the prediction of cardiac death as an individual end point and the implications for risk stratification are undefined. METHODS AND RESULTS We identified 5183 consecutive patients who underwent stress/rest SPECT and were followed up for the occurrence of cardiac death or myocardial infa...
متن کاملPredictive value of myocardial perfusion single-photon emission computed tomography and the impact of renal function on cardiac death.
BACKGROUND Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have worse cardiovascular outcomes than those without CKD. The prognostic utility of myocardial perfusion single-photon emission CT (MPS) in patients with varying degrees of renal dysfunction and the impact of CKD on cardiac death prediction in patients undergoing MPS have not been investigated. METHODS AND RESULTS We followed up 1652 cons...
