چکیده
Histopathologic-electrographic studies of ventriculography depicted nitroglycerin responsive and unresponsive asynergic areas were performed in 25 patients. Of 29 areas, 12 improved with nitroglycerin, showing < 10% muscle loss. Seventeen unimproved zones demonstrated significant fibrosis. Epicardial electrograms showed R waves in eight of nine improved zones. Of 11 unimproved zones, eight had Q waves.

متن کاملScintigraphic assessment of regional cardiac sympathetic nervous system in patients with single-vessel coronary artery disease.
In coronary artery disease, the cardiac sympathetic nervous system is closely associated with myocardial ischemia. I-123 metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) imaging allows us to assess the cardiac sympathetic nervous system regionally. One-hundred and eleven patients with single-vessel disease underwent regional quantitative analysis of MIBG imaging before successful percutaneous transluminal corona...
متن کاملUse of thallium-201 redistribution scintigraphy in the preoperative differentiation of reversible and nonreversible myocardial asynergy.
Thallium-201 (201Tl) redistribution scintigraphy might differentiate reversibly from nonreversibly asynergic myocardial segments and thus predict the response of these segments to coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). To test this hypothesis, 25 consecutive patients undergoing CABG, preoperative stress-redistribution 201Tl scintigraphy, and both pre- and postoperative resting equilibrium radi...
متن کاملUse of Thallium - 201 Redistribution Scintigraphy in the Preoperative Differentiation of Reversible and Nonreversible Myocardial
Thallium-201 (I'TI) redistribution scintigraphy might differentiate reversibly from nonreversibly asynergic myocardial segments and thus predict the response of these segments to coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). To test this hypothesis, 25 consecutive patients undergoing CABG, preoperative stress-redistribution 2'lTI scintigraphy, and both preand postoperative resting equilibrium radionu...
