99m technetium-ethyl-cysteinate-dimer single-photon emission CT can predict fatal ischemic brain edema.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We sought to study the prognostic value of early 99mtechnetium-ethyl-cysteinate-dimer single-photon emission CT (99mTc-ECD SPECT) for fatal ischemic brain edema in patients with middle cerebral artery (MCA) stroke compared with the prognostic value of CT and of clinical findings. METHODS We prospectively studied 108 patients clinically, with 99mTc-ECD SPECT, and with CT...
متن کاملInterobserver variability of cerebral blood flow measurements obtained using spectral analysis and technetium-99m labeled compounds.
Radionuclide angiography with technetium-99m hexamethylpropylene amine oxime (99mTc-HMPAO) or technetium-99m ethyl cysteinate dimer (99mTc-ECD) enables the non-invasive estimation of absolute cerebral blood flow (CBF) to be determined by using spectral analysis (SA). We previously demonstrated the clinical use of SA; however, this method involves a few manual steps. The aim of this study was to...
متن کاملPrognostication of recovery in patients with acute ischemic stroke through the use of brain SPECT with Technetium-99m--labeled metronidazole.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We hypothesized that technetium-99m-ethylene dicysteine-metronidazole (99mTc-EC-MN) localizes to brain tissue that is hypoxic but viable. This study prospectively evaluated the relationship between neurological outcome and uptake of 99mTc-EC-MN in peri-infarcted regions of the brain. METHODS Eight patients with acute ischemic stroke in the territory of the left middle c...
متن کاملIncrease in the Regional Cerebral Blood Flow following Waon Therapy in Patients with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome: A Pilot Study
Objective Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a complex disorder, with no consensus on therapeutic options. However, Waon therapy has been reported to be an effective treatment. The purpose of this study was to evaluate changes in the cerebral blood flow (CBF) before and after Waon therapy in CFS patients and to investigate the correlation between such changes and the therapeutic efficacy of Waon...
متن کاملUsefulness of an Automatic Quantitative Method for Measuring Regional Cerebral Blood Flow Using 99mTc Ethyl Cysteinate Dimer Brain Uptake Ratio
Objective(s): Improved brain uptake ratio (IBUR), employing 99mTc-ethyl cysteinate dimer (99mTc-ECD), is an automatic non-invasive method for quantitatively measuring regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF). This method was developed by the reconstruction of the theory and linear regression equation, based on rCBF measurement by H215O positron emission tomography. Clarification of differences in r...
