abstract

introduction: although left ventricular(lv) function parameters measured by gated myocardial perfusion spect (gspect) have been validated, experimental data have revealed that the calculated the lv function parameters using gspect are affected by patient populations as well as particular acquisition and processing conditions. we tried to determine the normal values of gspect in an iranian population. methods: we studied 3500 iranian patients who underwent gspect in an outpatient setting. to develop normal limits of lv functional indices using gspect, 148 patients with a low (55 & lvef77, esv> 26 and lvef

Dipyridamole stress and rest gated 99mTc-sestamibi myocardial perfusion SPECT: left ventricular function indices and myocardial perfusion findings

Introduction: We investigated the difference in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and end-systolic volume(ESV) measured by gated myocardial perfusion SPECT (GSPECT) in the post-dipyridamole stress and rest periods, and compared the results with the perfusion patterns found in the conventional non-gated tomograms. Methods: 297 consecutive patients were studie...

Diastolic left ventricular functional indices: Comparison between gated myocardial perfusion SPECT and echocardiography

Introduction: Many patients have only diastolic dysfunction without any abnormality in systolic function. We compared cardiac diastolic parameters obtained by gated myocardial perfusion SPECT (Gated SPECT) with those evaluated by echocardiography. Methods: Forty-nine patients (aged 37-85 years, 19 males and 30 women) underwent Gated SPECT and echocardiogr...

assessment of correlation of left ventricular diastolic functional indices between gated myocardial perfusion spect and echocardiography

conclusions in this study there is no correlation between the main lv diastolic indices derived by spect and echocardiography, may be due to the main changes in the last version of guidline for assessment of lv diastolic function by echocardiography. results the population study consisted of 19 male and 30 female with the average age of 58.2 years.there is a mild negative correlation between pf...
