Measurement of regional cerebral blood flow with 123I-IMP using one-point venous blood sampling and causality analysis: evaluation by comparison with conventional continuous arterial blood sampling.
OBJECTIVE Arterial input function represents the delivery of intravascular tracer to the brain. The optimal setting of this function is essential for measuring regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) based on the microsphere model using N-isopropyl-4-[123I]iodoamphetamine (123I-IMP), in which the arterial 123I-IMP concentration (integral value) during the initial 5 min is usually applied. We develo...
متن کاملMeasurement of noise in the Monte Carlo point sampling method
This paper gives a concise overview of the techniques we have used to find out the degree of measuring the quality of rendered images and a level of noise in particular. First part of the paper presents designed and conducted psychophysical experiment involving human subjective judgment. Then, two of the existing numerical image comparison methods are considered in the context of assessing the ...
متن کاملrCBF in neurodegenerative diseases as estimated by the autoradiographic (ARG) method and delayed I-123-IMP studies.
A total of 24 patients with a mean age of 45.8 +/- 20.8 were included in the study. The patients were grouped as Control (C), Degenerative Syndromes (DS), Degeneration Associated with External Factors (DEF), Degeneration Associated with Focal Neurologic Lesion (DFN) and Demyelinating Disease (DM). Imaging started 15 minutes for early and 4 hours for delayed scans after i.v. infusion of I-123 IM...
متن کاملLactate measurement: arterial versus venous blood sampling
Lactate is the end product of the metabolic process of glucose utilization, known as anaerobic glycolysis, which occurs in the cytoplasm of all cells. In well-oxygenated tissues this lactate is metabolized further, but if tissues are inadequately oxygenated, lactate accumulates locally and blood concentration increases. As a blood marker of tissue hypoxia, lactate measurement has long-establish...
متن کاملValidation of CBF measurement with non-invasive microsphere method (NIMS) compared with autoradiography method (ARG).
The purpose of this study is to examine the correlation of measured regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) by means of a new microsphere method (non-invasive microsphere method), to the autoradiography (ARG) method, which is an established quantification method for 123I-IMP brain SPECT. The non-invasive microsphere (NIMS) method and ARG method were simultaneously applied to 30 patients, and quanti...
