Two phase imaging of 99mTc-SESTAMIBI and 123I-BMIPP for patients with angina pectoris.

چکیده
We saw three cases of angina pectoris in which 99mTc-SESTAMIBI delayed images at rest were useful in diagnosing ischemia risk areas. These findings indicated that delayed 99mTc-SESTAMIBI images may be more sensitive to slight ischemia than 123I-BMIPP images, and suggested that imaging with 99mTc-SESTAMIBI twice at rest may be more effective. The addition of 123I-BMIPP SPECT was considered to be useful in making an evaluation of the severity of ischemia.

PURPOSE We studied the effect of myocardial ischemia and diabetes mellitus (DM) on the myocardial fatty acid metabolism using 123I-BMIPP myocardial scintigraphy. METHODS We performed 123I-BMIPP myocardial scintigraphy in 50 patients with myocardial ischemia and without DM (AP), in 30 patients with myocardial ischemia and DM (AP + DM), 12 patients with DM and without myocardial ischemia (DM), ...

PURPOSE Resting 123I-BMIPP scintigraphy can detect coronary artery disease based on persistent abnormality of myocardial fatty acid metabolism after transient ischemia. The present study aimed to determine the value of resting 123I-BMIPP scintigraphy in diagnosing coronary artery disease and predicting the therapeutic outcome in patients with chest pain symptom. METHOD Five hospitals particip...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to clarify the usefulness of 99mTc-sestamibi (MIBI) delayed imaging in the assessment of the severity of myocardial ischemia in patients with coronary artery stenosis. METHODS Forty-three angina pectoris with coronary stenosis of greater than 75% were enrolled in this study. Myocardial perfusion SPECT images were obtained 1 and 6 hours after an intraven...

Objective(s): The energy resolution of a cadmium-zinc-telluride (CZT) solid-state semiconductor detector is about 5%, and is superior to the resolution of the conventional Anger type detector which is 10%. Also, the window width of the high-energy part and of the low-energy part of a photo peak window can be changed separately. In this study, we used a semiconductor detector and examined the ef...

The decreased 123I-BMIPP uptake, while having normal perfusion, in the correspondent coronary artery territory is caused by a delayed metabolic recovery after the recovery of perfusion. This phenomenon termed ischemic memory can clearly differentiate vasospastic angina from other chest pain syndromes.
