The aim of this study was to evaluate myocardial viability in patients after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). We compared 201Tl SPECT after 201Tl with GIK (10% glucose 250 ml, insulin 5 U and KCl 10 mEq) infusion (GIK-201Tl) with resting 201Tl and 99mTc-pyrophosphate (PYP) dual SPECT, positron emission computed tomography (PET) using 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) in 21 patients with their first AMI, who all underwent successful reperfusion. GIK-201Tl SPECT, 201Tl and 99mTc-PYP dual SPECT were done within 10 days after admission and 18F-FDG-PET was performed at 3 weeks. GIK-201Tl SPECT was obtained after 30 min of GIK-201Tl infusion. 18F-FDG (370 MBq) was injected intravenously after oral glucose (1 g/ kg) loading, and then PET was obtained. PET and SPECT images were divided into 20 segments. Regional tracer uptake was scored using a 4-point scoring system (3 = normal to 0 = defect), and summed to a regional uptake score (RUS). Regional area means the infarcted area in which 99mTc-PYP accumulated. The number of decreased uptake segments (ES) was then determined. The infarcted area was defined as the area of 99mTc-PYP uptake.
The ESs for the GIK-201Tl and 18F-FDG-PET images were significantly lower than the number of 99mTc-PYP uptake segments. The RUS for GIK-201Tl was higher than that for resting-201Tl imaging and similar to those for 18F-FDG-PET.
In the detection of myocardial viability following AMI, GIK-201Tl imaging is useful with findings similar to those of 18F-FDG-PET.
本研究旨在评估急性心肌梗死(AMI)患者的心肌存活情况。我们将21例首次发生AMI且均成功实现再灌注的患者,在静脉输注极化液(GIK,即10%葡萄糖250ml、胰岛素5U和氯化钾10mEq)后进行的201Tl单光子发射计算机断层显像(SPECT)(GIK - 201Tl),与静息状态下的201Tl及99m锝焦磷酸盐(PYP)双SPECT、使用18F - 氟脱氧葡萄糖(18F - FDG)的正电子发射计算机断层显像(PET)进行了比较。GIK - 201Tl SPECT、201Tl和99mTc - PYP双SPECT在入院后10天内完成,18F - FDG - PET在3周时进行。GIK - 201Tl SPECT在输注GIK - 201Tl 30分钟后获得。口服葡萄糖(1g/kg)负荷后静脉注射18F - FDG(370MBq),然后进行PET检查。PET和SPECT图像被分为20个节段。使用4分评分系统(3 = 正常至0 = 缺损)对局部示踪剂摄取进行评分,并汇总为局部摄取评分(RUS)。局部区域是指99mTc - PYP聚集的梗死区域。然后确定摄取降低节段(ES)的数量。梗死区域定义为99mTc - PYP摄取的区域。
GIK - 201Tl和18F - FDG - PET图像的ES显著低于99mTc - PYP摄取节段的数量。GIK - 201Tl的RUS高于静息201Tl显像,且与18F - FDG - PET相似。
在检测AMI后的心肌存活情况时,GIK - 201Tl显像很有用,其结果与18F - FDG - PET相似。
