Detection of a coronary arterial thrombus by indium-111-oxine-labeled platelet scintigraphy.

چکیده
Coronary arteriography revealed significant left anterior descending coronary artery stenosis in a 72-year-old man with a history of myocardial infarction. Stenting of the stenotic vessel was performed. Twelve hours after stenting the patient complained of chest pain but emergent coronary arteriography did not show sign of any coronary arterial stenosis. Under suspicion of coronary thrombus formation, indium-111-oxine-labeled platelet scintigraphy was performed 5 days after stenting, and revealed accumulation of indium-111-oxine in the area corresponding to the stent implantation site.

Diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis using platelet scintigraphy.
PURPOSE We reviewed the usefulness of platelet scintigraphy, in which autologous platelets labeled with indium-111-oxine reveal thrombotic activity, for evaluating deep vein thrombosis (DVT). MATERIALS During the past 2 years, 39 cases with DVT were enrolled in this study. DVT was definitely diagnosed by color duplex scanning, platelet scintigraphy or both in all cases. For semiquantitative a...
متن کاملPositive imaging of an inflammatory process at an arteriovenous access site with 111 Indium-labeled platelets.
Complications associated with the vascular access for hemodialysis represent one of the most important causes of morbidity among patients with renal replacement therapy. Early detection of arteriovenous fistula (AVF) dysfunction is of great interest. We present the case of a 70 year old woman who underwent 111In-oxine-labeled-platelet scintigraphy to evaluate thrombogenicity at 3 weeks and 3 mo...
متن کاملUsefulness of indium-111-oxine-labeled leukocyte scintigraphy in diagnosis of inflammation associated with chronic aortic dissection.
BACKGROUND Patients with chronic aortic dissection require monitoring for indications of disease progression. In present study, inflammation adjacent to associated aortic wall was evaluated by indium-111-oxine-labeled leukocyte scintigraphy, scince inflammation of the blood vessel wall often associates with progression of chronic aortic dissection. METHODS AND RESULTS Fifteen patients with ao...
متن کاملScintigraphic detection of carotid atherosclerosis with indium-111-labeled autologous platelets.
Using autologous platelets labeled with indium-111-oxine, we studied the localization of platelets on arterial lesions by radionuclide scintigraphy in 34 patients with suspected cerebrovascular disease. The imaging results were compared with the findings of contrast angiography in 23 patients, 16 of whom were receiving antiplatelet and/or anticoagulant drugs during the platelet imaging study. A...
متن کاملIndium-111 platelet scintigraphy for the diagnosis of acute venous thrombosis.
Platelets labeled with indium-111 have been used successfully as a marker of active thrombosis in man. To establish the diagnostic accuracy of platelet scintigraphy in comparison to contrast venography in the diagnosis of acute lower limb venous thrombosis, we evaluated 103 consecutive patients divided into two groups. Platelets were labeled by the indium-111 oxine method. Patients from group I...
