UNLABELLED Planar lung scintigraphy is a standard method used for the diagnosis of lung embolism, but it is hampered by the high incidence of nondiagnostic tests. Ventilation/perfusion SPECT may possibly improve this situation. The objective of this study was to compare planar lung scintigraphy with ventilation/perfusion SPECT using pigs with artificially engendered lung emboli labeled with (20...
OBJECTIVES This study evaluated the diagnostic value of dipyridamole plus low level treadmill exercise (dipyridamole stress) thallium-201 single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) in patients taking antianginal drugs. BACKGROUND Dipyridamole stress is the major substitute for maximal exercise in patients referred for myocardial perfusion imaging. Although antianginal drugs are common...
Background A novel technology has been developed for ultrafast (UF) singlephoton emission computed tomography (SPECT) myocardial perfusion imaging by employing a pin-hole collimation design and multiple cadmium zinc telluride crystal arrays. The purpose of this study was to compare myocardial perfusion imaging obtained by UF-SPECT with standard (S) SPECT in patients with known or suspected coro...
introduction: it is recommended that the physician apply at least a semi-quantitative segmental scoring system in myocardial perfusion spect. we aimed to assess the agreement between automated semi-quantitative analysis using qps (quantitative perfusion spect) software and visual approach for calculation of summed stress score (sss), summed rest score (srs) and summed difference score (sds). ...
this study evaluated the relationship between the location of the most severe coronary artery stenosis and the subsequent acute myocardial infarction (ami). methods: of 1590 patients who were admitted with a diagnosis of ami, we identified 44 patients who had undergone previous myocardial perfusion spect. thirty-one of these patients also had previous coronary angiography. the relationship betw...
discussion the reason is that we assess the relative and not absolute differences of the tracer uptake in this imaging modality. there may be other findings on mpi images which could help us overcome this pitfall, including detecting wall motion abnormalities, lung uptake of the tracer, or transient ischemic dilation. another important issue is the ecg changes during exercise stress testing, wh...
BACKGROUND Numerous studies have shown decreased perfusion in the prefrontal cortex following mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). However, similar hypoperfusion can also be observed in depression. Given the high prevalence of depressive symptoms following mTBI, it is unclear to what extent depression influences hypoperfusion in TBI. METHODS Mild TBI patients without depressive symptoms (mTBI-...
Autism is a severe developmental disorder, the biological mechanisms of which remain unknown. Hence we conducted this study to assess the cerebral perfusion in 10 children with autism and mental retardation. Five age matched normal children served as controls. These cases were evaluated by single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) using Tc-99m HMPAO, followed by segmental quantitative ...
it is of value to determine the amount of viable myocardial tissue in patients suffering from chronic coronary artery disease and ventricular dysfunction. having the capability of evaluating both myocardial perfusion and function, simultaneously, myocardial scanning by ecg-gated is an appropriate method for this purpose. the aim of this study was to compare the results of myocardial perfusion a...
Left ventricular (LV) function and volumes, along with myocardial perfusion, have major diagnostic and prognostic importance inpatients with coronary artery disease [4,11,13,14, 18,20,27]. Myocardial perfusion scintigraphy is a well-established technique for evaluation of myocardial perfusion [16,26,37,38]. Electro cardiographic gating during the acquisition of SPECT perfusion images has become...
