to make an accurate estimation of the uptake of radioactivity in an organ using the conjugate view method, corrections of physical factors, such as background activity, scatter, and attenuation are needed. the aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of four different methods for background correction in activity quantification of the heart in myocardial perfusion scans. the organ activit...
This study was performed to evaluate the Tc-pyp SPECT role in determination of AMI severity and extension. Pyp SPECT imaging was done for 54 patients with AMI, who met the WHO criteria. SPECT findings were correlated with LVEF measurements. The abnormal scan was graded according to the intensity and was compared with the activity of the sternum in the same image. In addition, a segmental ...
The effect of direct current (DC) countershock upon myocardial technetium-99m stannous pyrophosphate (PYP) uptake was studied in 22 dogs. All eight dogs imaged had positive abnormal PYP scintigrams that were usually indistinguishable from experimental infarction. In three animals, additional areas of radionuclide uptake were seen in overlying noncardiac tissue. Left and right ventricular myocar...
OBJECTIVE Positron emission tomography (PET) with fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) is widely used for evaluation of cancer and ischemic heart disease. Recently, increased myocardial FDG uptake has been reported to be related to some types of heart disease, such as sarcoidosis. However, the physiological increased FDG uptake in the heart often mimics the abnormal high uptake in these cases. In this stud...
We report the effects of treadmill exercise on (18)F-FDG uptake in skeletal muscles and image quality of torso PET and compare stress myocardial perfusion imaging patterns with myocardial (18)F-FDG uptake. There were 3 groups of patients: 48 patients underwent PET within 8 h after a treadmill test (Ex 8), 45 patients within 48 h after a treadmill test (Ex 48), and 34 patients without prior exer...
Rosiglitazone therapy improves insulin sensitivity and glucose uptake in patients with uncomplicated type 2 diabetes. In coronary artery disease (CAD), glucose is an important source of energy and preserved myocardial glucose uptake is essential for the viability of jeopardized myocardium. The aim was to test whether rosiglitazone changes myocardial metabolism in type 2 diabetic patients with C...
The lipophilic cationic radiotracer (99m)Tc-sestamibi, known to be concentrated within mitochondria, is widely used for myocardial perfusion and to a lesser extent for muscle metabolism imaging. However, the exact distribution pattern in skeletal muscle has not been yet studied in detail. The present study aims to investigate the (99m)Tc-sestamibi uptake in rat skeletal muscle and myocardium in...
BACKGROUND F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) is a promising modality for detecting active lesions of cardiac sarcoidosis (CS). However, determining whether 18F-FDG uptake in the myocardium is physiological is challenging due to metabolic shift in myocardial cells. Although methods for inhibiting physiological myocardial 18F-FDG uptake have been proposed, no standard ...
The effect of direct current (DC) countershock upon myocardial technetium-99m stannous pyrophosphate (PYP) uptake was studied in 22 dogs. All eight dogs imaged had positive abnormal PYP scintigrams that were usually indistinguishable from experimental infarction.

The respective importance of flow and cellular viability in determining initial myocardial thallium uptake was studied in reperfused and nonreperfused experimental myocardial infarction. Open-chest dogs were subjected to permanent coronary artery occlusion of 70-minute (n = 3) or 5-hour duration (n = 5), or to a 3-hour temporary occlusion followed by reflow (n = 14). Thallium uptake 10 minutes ...
