Role of Metabolic Imaging in Detecting Cardiac Involvement in Sarcoidosis.
pensity for physiological myocardial 18F-FDG uptake.8 This being the case, JSNC recommendations based on recent studies have suggested preparation involving long fasting and diet modification prior to 18F-FDG PET studies.5,9 Given the challenges associated with 18F-FDG preparation, alternative diagnostic approaches for CS are being sought. In this issue of the Journal, Momose et al assess the d...
متن کاملMyocardial emission computed tomography with iodine-123-labeled beta-methyl-branched fatty acid in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
We studied whether emission computed tomography (ECT) with 123I-labeled 15-(p-iodophenyl)-3R,S-methylpentadecanoic acid (BMIPP) shows myocardial distribution different from 201Tl in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. In 10 patients with asymmetric septal hypertrophy (ASH), 5 with diffuse hypertrophy and 2 with apical hypertrophy, ECT was acquired 30 min (early) and 4 hr (late) after injection of 123I...
متن کاملComparison of myocardial imaging with iodine-123-iodophenyl-9-methyl pentadecanoic acid and thallium-201-chloride for assessment of patients with exercise-induced myocardial ischemia.
Iodine-123-iodophenyl-9-methyl-pentadecanoic acid [( 123I]MPDA) and thallium-201 (201Tl) were sequentially injected in 11 patients during exercise-induced myocardial ischemia. Simultaneous dual-energy planar images were obtained at 5 min, 3 and 5 hr. All studies were concordantly either positive (8/11) or negative (3/11) by both radionuclides. Exact agreement for segmental uptake was 93%, 94% a...
متن کاملScatter and cross-talk correction for one-day acquisition of 123I-BMIPP and 99mtc-tetrofosmin myocardial SPECT.
OBJECTIVE 123I-15-(p-iodophenyl)-3-(R,S)-methylpentadecanoic acid (BMIPP) and 99mTc-tetrofosmin (TET) are widely used for evaluation of myocardial fatty acid metabolism and perfusion, respectively. ECG-gated TET SPECT is also used for evaluation of myocardial wall motion. These tests are often performed on the same day to minimize both the time required and inconvenience to patients and medical...
متن کاملSummary Impairment of Septal Uptake and Washout on 123I-BMIPP Myocardial SPECT after Pacemaker Implantation: Report of Two Cases
Case 1 involved a 62-year-old woman with complete atrioventricular block and case 2 involved a 70year-old woman with sick sinus syndrome. In both cases, echocardiography, 123I-15-(p-iodophenyl)-3R,S-methyl pentadecanoic acid (BMIPP) and 99mTctetrofosmin myocardial single photon emission computed tomographic (SPECT) findings were normal. Coronary arteriography and left ventriculography also reve...
