متن کاملStress-first single photon emission computed myocardial perfusion imaging
BACKGROUND Myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) with single photon emission tomography (SPET) is widely used in coronary artery disease evaluation. Recently major dosimetric concerns have arisen. The aim of this study was to evaluate if a pre-test scoring system could predict the results of stress SPET MPI, thus avoiding two radionuclide injections. METHODS All consecutive patients (n=309) unde...
متن کاملPinhole single-photon emission computed tomography for myocardial perfusion imaging of mice.
OBJECTIVES Although transgenic mice have emerged as powerful experimental models of cardiovascular disease, methods for in vivo phenotypic assessment and characterization remain limited, motivating the development of new instruments for biologic measurement. BACKGROUND We have developed a single-photon emission computed tomography system with a pinhole collimator (pinhole SPECT) for high-reso...
متن کاملLABORATORY INVESTIGATION SINGLE-PHOTON EMISSION TOMOGRAPHY Quantitation of size of relative myocardial perfusion defect by single-photon emission computed tomography
The purpose of this study was to validate a semiautomatic method for quantitating the size of relative myocardial perfusion defects from single-photon emission computed tomographic (SPECT) images. We compared the size of the image defect in vivo, expressed as percent of involved left ventricle, as determined by this method with the anatomic size of the defect in vitro in 19 dogs. To test the me...
متن کاملQuantitative single-photon emission computed tomography imaging.
Over the past decade, quantitation of cardiac single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) data, once limited to perfusion assessment, has been extended to global and regional function assessment for both the left and the right ventricle, as well as to measurement of additional cardiac parameters of diagnostic and prognostic interest. A number of commercially available quantitative algori...
