Heterogeneity of myocardial blood flow and metabolism: review of physiologic principles and implications for radionuclide imaging of the heart.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Heterogeneity of myocardial blood flow and metabolism is a known feature of the coronary circulation in laboratory animals and has been reported in the normal human coronary circulation as well. This review will describe the types of heterogeneity that have been reported, how they relate to one another, and the extent to which physiologic heterogeneity of myocardial blood flow and metabolism may influence the appearance of both positron emission tomography (PET) and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) images of the myocardium.

Exercise training has restorative potential on myocardial energy metabolism in rats with chronic heart failure
Objective(s): Exercise training is a well-known accelerator for the treatment of chronic heart failure (CHF). The current study aimed to investigate the restorative effects of aerobic interval training (AIT) intervention on myocardial energy metabolism in CHF rats. Materials and Methods: Post-myocardial infarction (MI) heart failure animal model was established. The Sprague-Dawley rats were ran...
متن کاملCovid-19 manifestation on Tl-201 myocardial perfusion SPECT/CT
A 67 years old woman was referred to nuclear medicine center for myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) for assessment of ischemic heart dieses (IHD).She had a history of atypical chest pain and dyspnea since about 10 days before admission. The MPI SPECT/CT was performed by stress/redistribution Tl-201 protocol. MPI was interpreted as relatively good coronary flow with no appreciable stress induced...
متن کاملEvaluation of Cardiac Mitochondrial Function by a Nuclear Imaging Technique using Technetium-99m-MIBI Uptake Kinetics
Mitochondria play an important role in energy production for the cell. The proper function of a myocardial cell largely depends on the functional capacity of the mitochondria. Therefore it is necessary to establish a novel and reliable method for a non-invasive assessment of mitochondrial function and metabolism in humans. Although originally designed for evaluating myocardial perfusion, 99mTc...
متن کاملThe Hemodynamic Effects of Drugs on Myocardial Oxygen Use
The circulatory responses to high equinalgesic doses of morphine are compared with those of pethidin. The decrease in mean arterial blood pressure in case of morphine was 28p.c., with a paralleled and identical decrease in total peripheral resistance and no negative inotropic effects. Pethidine decreased blood pressure 54p.c., as a result of peripheral vasodilation of 46p.c. and a sharp drop...

Background and Objective: Numerical modeling of biological structures would be very helpful tool to analyze hundreds of human body phenomena and also diseases diagnosis. One physiologic phenomenon is blood circulatory system and heart hemodynamic performance that can be simulated by utilizing lumped method. In this study, we can predict hemodynamic behavior of one artery of circulatory system (...
