Direct imaging of exercise-induced myocardial ischemia with fluorine-18-labeled deoxyglucose and Tc-99m-sestamibi in coronary artery disease.
BACKGROUND Scintigraphic myocardial perfusion imaging is the most widely used noninvasive modality for the detection of coronary artery disease (CAD). A technique for direct imaging of exercise-induced myocardial ischemia is highly desirable and preferable over perfusion imaging but is presently unavailable. We evaluated the feasibility and diagnostic accuracy of direct imaging of exercise-indu...
متن کاملDiagnostic Value of Ankle Brachial Index for Myocardial Ischemia in Asymptomatic Diabetic Patients and Comparison with Myocardial Perfusion Imaging
Objective: The ankle-brachial index (ABI) as a simple test which can detect peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Therefore in this study we try to evaluate the diagnostic value of ABI for silent myocardial ischemia in diabetic patients and compare the results with myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) results. Materials and Methods: All 149 diabetic patients in this study were categorized according...
متن کاملExercise Testing Score for Myocardial Ischemia Gradation
Introduction Scores aimed at contributing to the optimization of exercise testing (ET) have been developed and the experience with their application in coronary artery disease (CAD) has proven to be favorable1. Although there is debate on the use of scores in clinical practice, those that stand for it argue that they may decrease the rate of undiagnosed CAD, besides reducing the number of patie...
متن کاملCLINICAL INVESTIGATION Myocardial structure in patients with exercise-induced ischemia
Myocardial structure of left ventricular segments with recurrent myocardial ischemia was evaluated by morphometry and compared with that of segments with normal blood supply in 15 patients with exercise-induced myocardial ischemia. Left ventricular high-fidelity pressure measurements and simultaneous biplane angiocardiography were performed in patients at rest and during supine bicycle exercise...
متن کاملLocalization of exercise-induced myocardial ischemia with ST depression.
This study was undertaken to determine whether the site of ST depression on 12-lead exercise electrocardiography can identify the ischemic site assessed by myocardial Tl-201 emission computed tomography in 409 patients with transient defects. ST depression in some leads was more frequent in those with inferior or lateral ischemia than in those with anterior ischemia. In 214 patients with ST dep...
