BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) needs to be distinguished from Alzheimer's disease (AD) because of important differences in patient management and outcome. Severe cardiac sympathetic degeneration occurs in DLB, but not in AD, offering a potential system for a biological diagnostic marker. The primary aim of this study was to investigate the diagnostic accuracy, in the ant...
he sympathetic nervous system of the heart is critically involved in the maintenance of cardiovascular homoeostasis by regulating cardiac contractility, conduction, heart frequency and peripheral vasoconstriction.1 It has been shown that a dysfunctional cardiac sympathetic nervous system exerts detrimental effects on the structural and functional integrity of the myocardium, leading to a marked...
BACKGROUND Patients with Brugada syndrome present with characteristic ECG abnormalities (atypical right bundle-branch block and ST-segment elevation) and life-threatening ventricular tachyarrhythmias despite structurally normal hearts. Involvement of the autonomic nervous system is suggested by the occurrence of ventricular tachyarrhythmias and sudden death at rest or during sleep and by change...
Background: Selegiline enhances the patient's endogenous dopamine by inhibiting dopamine metabolism. The efficacy of selegiline monotherapy for drug-naïve Parkinson's disease (PD) patients may depend on the degree of dopaminergic neuronal degeneration. 123I-Ioflupane single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and 123I-meta-iodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) myocardial scintigraphy are diagnosti...
UNLABELLED We evaluated serial changes in cardiac sympathetic nerve distribution using 123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (123I-MIBG) after the Maze procedure. The Maze procedure, in which multiple incisions are made in the atrium, has been concomitantly performed with mitral valve (MV) surgery in an attempt to eliminate atrial fibrillation (AF). Although attenuation of the sinoatrial node response t...
This review focuses on molecular imaging using various radioligands for the tissue characterization of patients with heart failure. 123I-labeled metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG), as a marker of adrenergic neuron function, plays an important role in risk stratification in heart failure and may be useful for predicting fatal arrhythmias that may require implantable cardioverter-defibrillator treatm...
Background: 123I-Metaiodobenzylguanidine ([123I]mIBG) is the agent of choice to assess for presence metastases and therapy response in patients with neuroblastoma.Aim: To [123I]mIBG scan results outcome stage 4 neuroblastoma at our institution.Setting: Red Cross War Memorial Children’s Hospital.Methods: A retrospective review baseline follow-up scans who presented between January 2001 May 2015....
Subjects Individual datasets from 6 prospective MIBG cohort studies performed in Japan between 1990 and 2009 were combined to make a pooled database of 1,322 chronic HF patients, as previously reported.4 Patients with HF from 6 Japanese medical institutions provided data for this study. All patients were enrolled in prospective observational studies, in which MIBG was approved for clinical use ...
Twenty-seven patients with essential hypertension were prospectively studied with 123I-labeled metaiodobenzyl-guanidine (123I-MIBG) to assess the presence and location of impaired sympathetic innervation in hypertrophied myocardium. Thirteen patients had left ventricular hypertrophy on echocardiography, and 14 had normal echocardiograms. The wash out ratio of 123I-MIBG in these two groups did n...
It is assumed that the low-frequency power (LF) of heart rate variability (HRV) increases with progress of congestive heart failure (CHF), therefore positively correlating with cardiac 123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) washout. It is demonstrated here that HRV, including normalized LF, correlated inversely with MIBG washout and positively with the ratio of heart-to-mediastinum MIBG activity i...
