diffuse bilateral breast uptake on the myocardial perfusion spect of a nursing female
نویسندگان
چکیده
bilateral diffuse intense breast uptake was noted in a 40 year old female who was evaluated with tc-99m sestamibi (mibi) myocardial perfusion scan for possible ischemia. she was breast feeding her 1.5 year old child. the intense uptake in the breasts was superimposed on the apical and anteroapical regions of the myocardium and caused interpretation problem. we recommend considering tc-99m mibi breast uptake during breast feeding as a possible cause of non-interpretable, superimposition of radiotracer on the myocardium in myocardial perfusion scan.

متن کاملMyocardial perfusion SPECT: Perfusion quantification
Different software tools for quantification of myocardial perfusion SPECT (MPS) studies are routinely used. Several perfusion parameters can be computed automatically. Interpretation of the MPS should start with visual inspection of the rotating planar images, visual analysis of reconstructed SPECT slices and then quantitative analysis to confirm the visual impression. Quantification should be...

Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of successful kidney transplantation (KT) on myocardial perfusion and left ventricular function by both qualitative (visual) interpretation and semiquantitative parameters, using myocardial perfusion scintigraphy with gated-single photon emission computed tomography (gated-SPECT) in patients suffering from end-stage renal disease. ...
متن کاملCovid-19 manifestation on Tl-201 myocardial perfusion SPECT/CT
A 67 years old woman was referred to nuclear medicine center for myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) for assessment of ischemic heart dieses (IHD).She had a history of atypical chest pain and dyspnea since about 10 days before admission. The MPI SPECT/CT was performed by stress/redistribution Tl-201 protocol. MPI was interpreted as relatively good coronary flow with no appreciable stress induced...
