Long-term prognosis after a normal exercise stress Tc-99m sestamibi SPECT study.
BACKGROUND Patients with a normal stress technetium 99m sestamibi study were shown to have a favorable outcome at intermediate-term follow-up. However, long-term survival has not been studied. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence and predictors of mortality and cardiac events at long-term follow-up after a normal exercise stress sestamibi study. Methods and results We studied 218...
متن کاملPrognostic value of normal exercise and adenosine (99m)Tc-tetrofosmin SPECT imaging: results from the multicenter registry of 4,728 patients.
UNLABELLED Event rates associated with a normal or low-risk myocardial perfusion SPECT imaging study have been shown by numerous investigators to be associated with <1%/y of follow-up. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value of a normal (99m)Tc-tetrofosmin study in a geographically diverse registry of patients undergoing stress myocardial perfusion SPECT. A total of 4,7...
متن کاملPrognostic value of dobutamine-atropine stress (99m)Tc-tetrofosmin myocardial perfusion SPECT in patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease.
UNLABELLED 99mTc-Tetrofosmin is a recently introduced radioactive isotope for the assessment of myocardial perfusion. Data regarding the prognostic value of stress imaging using this isotope are scarce. The aim of this study was to assess the prognostic value of dobutamine-atropine (99m)Tc-tetrofosmin SPECT for the prediction of late cardiac events in patients with known or suspected coronary a...
متن کاملThe prognostic value of ECG-gated SPECT imaging in patients undergoing stress Tc-99m sestamibi myocardial perfusion imaging.
BACKGROUND The ability of stress radionuclide myocardial perfusion imaging to predict adverse cardiac events is well accepted. As left ventricular systolic function has also been shown to be an important prognostic indicator, the objective of this study was to determine whether electrocardiography (ECG)-gated single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) functional data add additional powe...
متن کاملDobutamine Tc-99m furifosmin SPECT in detection of coronary artery disease: evaluation of same day, rest-stress protocol.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and diagnostic accuracy of same day rest-stress myocardial perfusion SPECT (MP SPECT) protocol by using technetium-99m (Tc-99m) furifosmin in conjunction with dobutamine stress test in subjects in whom coronary artery disease (CAD) had been proven or excluded at coronary angiography (CA). The study group consisted of 25 patients (8 femal...
