Indium 111-monoclonal antimyosin antibody imaging in the diagnosis of acute myocarditis.
A definitive diagnosis of myocarditis requires right ventricular biopsy. Despite its specificity, however, right ventricular biopsy may lack sensitivity due to the focal nature of the disease. Because indium 111-monoclonal antimyosin antibody imaging can be used to detect myocardial necrosis, this procedure was performed on 28 patients clinically suspected of having myocarditis, 25 of whom had ...
متن کاملSerial Myocardial Imaging after a Single Dose of Thallium-201
Although thallium-201 exercise scintigraphy has been established for the detection of myocardial ischemia and viability, little is known regarding the myocardial thallium-201 kinetics during angioplasty. Herein, we report a 77-year old man with angina pectoris, in whom serial myocardial imaging after a single dose of thallium-201 was helpful in identifying not only the culprit lesion and myocar...
متن کاملThallium-201 Myocardial Perfusion Imaging
The sensitivity of myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) using thallium-201 injected both at rest and during peak exercise was compared to simultaneously recorded 12 lead electrocardiography (ECG) for the detection of transient ischemia in 20 normal subjects and 63 patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). No significant perfusion defects or ECG changes were seen on either the rest or exercise ...
متن کاملThallium--201 myocardial imaging in Kawasaki disease.
Myocardial imaging using thallium-201 was performed in patients with Kawasaki disease. In two patients whose ECGs showed ischemic changes, the scintiscan demonstrated an area with diminished radioactivity at the site corresponding to electrocardiographic localization of the infarction. Thallium-201 myocardial imaging is useful in the diagnosis of myocardial infarction not only in adults but als...
متن کاملReproducibility of thallium-201 myocardial imaging.
Seventy-six thallium-201 myocardial perfusion studies were performed on twenty-five patients to assess their reproducibility and the effect ofvarying the level of exercise on the results of imaging. Each patient had a thallium-201 study at rest. Fourteen patients had studies on two occasions at maximum exercise, and twelve patients had studies both at light and at maximum exercise. Of 70 segmen...
