Long-Term Follow-Up of Outcomes With F-18-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography Imaging-Assisted Management of Patients With Severe Left Ventricular Dysfunction Secondary to Coronary Disease.
BACKGROUND Whether viability imaging can impact long-term patient outcomes is uncertain. The PARR-2 study (Positron Emission Tomography and Recovery Following Revascularization) showed a nonsignificant trend toward improved outcomes at 1 year using an F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (PET)-assisted strategy in patients with suspected ischemic cardiomyopathy. When patients ad...
متن کاملHigh myocardial 18F-FDG uptake after chemotherapy in the presence of left ventricular dysfunction as well as 3-month later with no left ventricular dysfunction
Diffusely increased glucose metabolic activity in the right and left ventricles using 2-deoxy-2-(F-18) fluoro-D-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDGPET/CT) and global left ventricular hypokinesia at echocardiography can be evident in acute myocarditis. But, there has been no case report that the ventricular 18F-FDGuptake remains unchanged even ...
متن کاملRole of F-18 FDG positron emission tomography (PET) in the assessment of myocardial viability.
Positron emission tomography (PET) is a functional imaging technique with important clinical applications in cardiology, oncology, and neurology. In cardiac imaging, its role has been extensively evaluated in the noninvasive diagnosis of coronary artery disease and in the determination of prognosis. Additionally, cardiac PET with F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) is very helpful in selection of pat...
متن کاملA Comparison of Thallium-201 Spect and F-18 Deoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography in Assessing Myocardial Viability
Assessment of myocardial viability 1>rior to revascularization procedures is an important clinical consideration for improved functional recovery of regional left ventricular dysfunction. In chronic coronary artery disease, impaired left ventricular function , at least in part, is due to ischemic or hibernating myocardium rather than just myocardial fibrosis. Functional recovery of the left ven...
متن کاملMyocardial viability in chronic ischemic heart disease: comparison of contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging with (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography.
OBJECTIVES We sought to compare contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (ceMRI) with nuclear metabolic imaging for the assessment of myocardial viability in patients with chronic ischemic heart disease and left ventricular (LV) dysfunction. BACKGROUND Contrast-enhanced MRI has been shown to identify scar tissue in ischemically damaged myocardium. METHODS Twenty-six patients with chroni...
