چکیده

the aim of this article is to review the application of current imaging techniques used for the detection of viable myocardium. each technique is discussed briefly, and the more commonly used techniques are compared. the imaging techniques reviewed herein are dobutamine stress echocardiography, single photon emission tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, positron emission tomography with f-18 fluorodeoxyglucose, and recently introduced tissue doppler imaging. the estimation of the amount of viable myocardium that could predict a better outcome after revascularization being a challenging issue, the present article also reviews a variety of cut-off points suggested by different investigators as adequate viable myocardium for revascularization and presents a summary of clinical, angiographical, and echocardiographic findings that could assist in selecting patients for viability study.

[Assessment of myocardial viability in patients before revascularization].

Information on myocardial viability can be useful to decide when coronary artery revascularization is indicated for patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and left regional or global ventricular dysfunction. Difficulties in assessing viability arise because the same part of the ventricular wall can have a mixture of necrotic tissue and viable myocardium. Diagnostic markers of myocardia...

Myocardial viability assessment in 18FDG PET/CT study (18FDG PET myocardial viability assessment).

Accurate identification of viable myocardium is crucial in patient qualification for medical or surgical treatment. Only persons with confirmed cardiac viability will benefit from revascularization procedures. It is also well known, that the amount of viable myocardium assessed preoperatively is the best indicator of long term cardiac event free survival after cardiac intervention.There are sev...

Stunning, hibernation, and assessment of myocardial viability.

The last 3 decades have witnessed an unprecedented improvement in the outcome of patients with acute coronary syndromes. The widespread use of thrombolytic therapy and percutaneous coronary interventions, in association with increasingly potent antithrombotic agents, has contributed to significant reductions in mortality and morbidity in these patients. Although overall survival has improved, a...

Assessment of myocardial viability in patients with heart failure.

The prognosis for patients with chronic ischemic left ventricular dysfunction is poor, despite advances in different therapies. Noninvasive assessment of myocardial viability may guide patient management. Multiple imaging techniques have been developed to assess viable and nonviable myocardium by evaluating perfusion, cell membrane integrity, mitochondria, glucose metabolism, scar tissue, and c...
