ASNC INFORMATION STATEMENT American Society of Nuclear Cardiology review of the ACCF/ASNC appropriateness criteria for single-photon emission computed tomagraphy myocardial perfusion imaging (SPECT MPI)
The American College of Cardiology Foundation (ACCF) and the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology (ASNC) have published criteria for the appropriate use of single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) with regard to a variety of clinical indications and scenarios. In determining the appropriate use of MPI for a given clinical indication, evidence-based...
متن کاملASNC IMAGING GUIDELINE Myocardial perfusion planar imaging
Although single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is preferable for myocardial perfusion scintigraphy, in a minimal number of circumstances, planar imagingmay be useful ormay be the onlymodality available. Purpose. To evaluate regional myocardial perfusion and function. Planar imaging is an acceptable method for myocardial perfusion imaging. The anatomy of the heart is sufficiently si...
متن کاملPrediction of Changes in Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction after Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Surgery by Myocardial Perfusion Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography
Introduction: Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is considered to be the single most important prognostic factor in patients with previous myocardial infarction. LVEF is not improved in all patients after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). This study aimed to assess the possibility of prediction of LVEF changes after CABG using myocardial perfusion gated signle photon emission compu...
متن کاملEffects of depression on myocardial perfusion scintigraphy [Persian]
Introduction: The relationship between depression and coronary artery disease is well established; however assessment of this relationship using functional and semi-quantitative imaging (myocardial perfusion scintigraphy) was lacking. The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between the severity of depression and the severity of myocardial perfusion abno...
متن کاملMyocardial Perfusion SPECT Imaging in Dextrocardia with Situs Inversus: A Case Report
Dextrocardia is a cardiac positional anomaly in which the heart is located in the right hemithorax with its base-to-apex axis directed to the right and caudad. Situs inversus is an autosomal recessive disorder that causes organs in the chest and abdomen to be positioned in a mirror image from their normal position. Dextrocardia may occur in isolation or as part of situs inversus. Similarly, sit...
