Metoprolol-induced changes in myocardial (123)I-metaiodobenzylguanidine uptake in Parkinson's disease.
A58-year-old man who had had Parkinson’s disease for many years was referred to the Department of Cardiology because of progressive and severe symptoms of orthostatic hypotension. Examination revealed a drop in systolic blood pressure on standing of 25 mm Hg. Heart rate at rest was 84 bpm, and it increased to 88 bpm on standing. Cardiac examination showed no abnormalities. 2D echocardiography w...

(I-MIBG) Imaging in Brugada Syndrome To the Editor: We read with interest a recent article in Circulation by Wichter et al1 on cardiac autonomic dysfunction in Brugada syndrome. The authors demonstrated that regionally reduced iodine-123-metaiodobenzylguanidine (I-MIBG) uptake in the inferior and septal left ventricular wall was present in 8 (47%) of 17 patients with Brugada syndrome but in non...

متن کاملI-metaiodobenzylguanidine myocardial scintigraphy in Parkinson’s disease
Objectives—I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) myocardial scintigraphy is clinically used to estimate local myocardial sympathetic nerve damage in some forms of heart disease, autonomic nerve disturbance in diabetic neuropathy, and disturbance of the autonomic nervous system in neurodegenerative disease. In the present study, examinations were performed to clarify (1) the proportion of cardiac sym...
متن کاملDiscordant iodine-123 metaiodobenzylguanidine uptake area reflects recovery time dispersion in acute myocardial infarction.
lodine-123 metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) uptake was reported to be reduced compared to Tl-201 (Tl) in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Within such an area, degrees of both sympathetic neural function and ischemic myocardial cell damage are considered to be greatly dispersed. These kinds of damage were reported to effect reporalization time in myocardial cells, and we evaluated our hypothesis...
