BACKGROUND Perfusion-cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is generally accepted as an alternative to SPECT to assess myocardial ischemia non-invasively. However its performance vs gated-SPECT and in sub-populations is not fully established. The goal was to compare in a multicenter setting the diagnostic performance of perfusion-CMR and gated-SPECT for the detection of CAD in various populati...
BACKGROUND Exercise gated single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) using technetium-99m (99mTc)-sestamibi evaluates both myocardial perfusion during stress and wall motion >30 min after the stress, which has the potential to assess not only exercise-induced myocardial ischemia but also the development of myocardial stunning. METHODS AND RESULTS To evaluate the incidence of post-stre...
UNLABELLED Quantitation of regional myocardial function is valuable in patients with coronary artery disease. This study assessed normal heterogeneity and developed and validated normal limits for quantitative regional motion and thickening by gated myocardial perfusion SPECT. METHODS Patients underwent rest (201)Tl/exercise (99m)Tc-sestamibi gated SPECT. Reference values of motion and thicke...
UNLABELLED Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and viability are essential variables for the prognosis of myocardial infarction and can be measured simultaneously by (201)Tl gated SPECT; however, most algorithms tend to underestimate LVEF. This study aimed to evaluate a new myocardial tracking algorithm, MyoTrack (MTK), for automatic LVEF calculation. METHODS A rest/redistribution (20 m...
UNLABELLED We have developed a completely automatic algorithm to quantitatively measure left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) from gated 99mTc-sestamibi myocardial perfusion SPECT images. METHODS The algorithm operates in the three-dimensional space and uses gated short-axis image volumes. It segments the left ventricle (LV), estimates and displays endocardial and epicardial surfaces for ...
Myocardial perfusion single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is widely used in assessing coronary artery disease (CAD) owing to its proven efficacy extensive clinical experience. Like other functional tests, myocardial SPECT recommended for the diagnosis of obstructive CAD, risk stratification assessment, and treatment decision making. Besides quantifying left ventricular volume, glo...
Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of successful kidney transplantation (KT) on myocardial perfusion and left ventricular function by both qualitative (visual) interpretation and semiquantitative parameters, using myocardial perfusion scintigraphy with gated-single photon emission computed tomography (gated-SPECT) in patients suffering from end-stage renal disease. M...
UNLABELLED Myocardial perfusion gated-single photon emission computed tomography (gated-SPECT) imaging is used for the combined evaluation of myocardial perfusion and left ventricular (LV) function. The aim of this study is to analyze the influence of counts/pixel and concomitantly the total counts in the myocardium for the calculation of myocardial functional parameters. MATERIAL AND METHODS...
Myocardial ischemia may occur during an exercise session in cardiac rehabilitation programs. However, it has not been established whether it is elicited when exercise prescription is based on heart rate corresponding to the anaerobic threshold as measured by cardiopulmonary exercise testing. Our objective was to determine the incidence of myocardial ischemia in cardiac rehabilitation programs a...
myocardial perfusion spect imaging with tc99m-sestamibi is the most accurate non-invasive means of detecting coronary artery disease and assessing the severity of perfusion abnormalities in the patients with coronary stenosis. though simple and straight forward the results produced by the technique is very much affected by the details being used. one of the main problems with the test, which ha...
