Dipyridamole Thallium Imaging
Thallium e01 Tl) myocardial perfusion imaging with exercise is widely accepted as a simple and safe method to diagnose coronary artery disease (CAD) or to evaluate the extent and significance of disease in patients with known CAD. A significant number of patients cannot achieve the necessary level of exercise with routinely performed 201 Tl treadmill or bicycle exercise testing to properly allo...
متن کاملThe safety of intravenous dipyridamole thallium myocardial perfusion imaging. Intravenous Dipyridamole Thallium Imaging Study Group.
Clinical data on 3,911 patients were collected from 64 individual investigators to evaluate the safety of intravenous dipyridamole-thallium imaging as an alternative to exercise thallium imaging for the evaluation of coronary artery disease. There were two deaths because of myocardial infarctions, two nonfatal myocardial infarctions, and six cases of acute bronchospasm. Chest pain occurred in 7...

متن کاملDipyridamole thallium 201 imaging. How safe is it?
D ipyridamole thallium 201 scintigraphy is increasingly being used as an alternative to exercise scintigraphy for detection of coronary artery disease and risk stratification.1,2 Intravenous infusion of 0.56 mg/kg dipyridamole, the average dose used in clinical studies, causes a significant increase in myocardial blood flow in zones perfused by normal coronary arteries but only a slight increas...
متن کاملProlonged myocardial ischemia after intravenous dipyridamole thallium imaging.
Intravenous dipyridamole thallium imaging is reported to be a safe test with minimal side effects. It has been proposed by some that the test simply dilates the coronary vessels without actually producing myocardial ischemia. In this report, we describe a patient who, following intravenous dipyridamole thallium imaging, developed severe myocardial ischemia which persisted for 90 minutes, requir...
