We saw three cases of angina pectoris in which 99mTc-SESTAMIBI delayed images at rest were useful in diagnosing ischemia risk areas. These findings indicated that delayed 99mTc-SESTAMIBI images may be more sensitive to slight ischemia than 123I-BMIPP images, and suggested that imaging with 99mTc-SESTAMIBI twice at rest may be more effective. The addition of 123I-BMIPP SPECT was considered to be...
introduction: attenuation correction is a useful process for improving myocardial perfusion spect and is dependent on activity and distribution of attenuation coefficients in the body (attenuation map). attenuation artifacts are a common problem in myocardial perfusion spect. the aim of this study was to compare the effect of attenuation correction using different attenuation maps and different...
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to analyze the distribution and extent of the myocardium at risk using polar maps obtained with myocardial perfusion SPECT. Myocardial perfusion of territories irrigated by the left anterior descending (LAD), right coronary (RCA) and left circumflex artery (CX) was studied with the help of a technetium-radiolabeled tracer during occlusion of...
INTRODUCTION Mild ischemia in the inferolateral wall on myocardial perfusion imaging is seen frequently in practice. The aim of this study is to assess the importance of the above issue on myocardial perfusion SPECT with coronary angiography. PATIENTS AND METHODS All patients enrolled in this study exhibited mild ischemia of the inferolateral wall on myocardial single photon emission computed...
parathyroid adenoma involving a single parathyroid gland is the underlying cause of 80-85% of primary hyperparathyroidism (phpt). skeletal system is significantly affected by phpt. brown tumors are known to have affinity for 99mtc-mibi. we report a rare case of phpt presenting with diffuse bony pain, high calcium level and significantly elevated alkaline phosphatase level. 99mtc-pertechnetate/9...
OBJECTIVES To provide the clinician with a guide to the clinical utility of 99mTc-HMPAO single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and to the interpretation of specific test results in the differential diagnosis of dementia. METHODS Three hundred and sixty three patients with dementia were studied prospectively for a median three (range 1-6) years and classified into disease groups on...
OBJECTIVES This study sought to evaluate an imaging approach using gated 99mTc-MIBI (MIBI) SPECT and gated 18F-FDG (FDG) PET for assessment of myocardial viability and cardiac function. METHODS Forty-eight patients (38 men, mean age 68.1 +/- 9.6 years) underwent ECG-gated FDG PET and MIBI SPECT within a week. The baseline diagnoses were coronary artery disease (31), mitral regurgitation (1), ...
Bone scintigraphy is a sensitive and popular method for imaging a wide array of benign or malignant skeletal abnormalities. However, the uptake of tracers used for bone scintigraphy may be observed in various extraosseous sites, thereby limiting its specificity. It is difficult to correctly localize such sites of uptake on planar bone scintigraphy alone. The addition of hybrid single-photon emi...
UNLABELLED Obesity is a major heath problem associated with increased cardiovascular mortality. There are currently no data to support a role for stress imaging techniques in the risk stratification of obese patients. The aim of this study was to assess the independent value of stress 99mTc-tetrofosmin SPECT in predicting mortality and hard cardiac events in obese patients. METHODS We studied...
PURPOSE 99mTc-3PRGD2, a promising tracer targeting integrin receptor, may serve as a novel tumor-specific agent for single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). A multi-center study was prospectively designed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of 99mTc-3PRGD2 imaging for bone metastasis in patients with lung cancer in comparison with the conventional 99mTc-MDP bone scan. METHODS The p...
