This study was designed to compare the tracer kinetics between 99mTc-sestamibi and 99mTc-tetrofosmin in a heterogeneous group of 24 patients admitted for routine perfusion imaging.
Twelve patients were studied with 99mTc-tetrofosmin and 12 with 99mTc-sestamibi. In each group, six patients had a low likelihood for coronary artery disease, and six patients had angiographically proven coronary artery stenoses of > 75% or previous myocardial infarction. Analysis of myocardial and liver uptake and clearance as well as target-to-organ contrasts were performed with planar stress images.
Myocardial uptake of 99mTc-tetrofosmin was higher from 5 min (0.37 +/- 0.12 counts/pixel x MBq-1, p = 0.008) to 60 min (0.32 +/- 0.10 counts/pixel x MBq-1, p = 0.04) compared to 99mTc-sestamibi. Biological half-life for 99mTc-tetrofosmin (278 +/- 32 min) in normal myocardium was significantly shorter (p = 0.008) than for 99mTc-sestamibi (680 +/- 45 min). Biological liver half-life for 99mTc-tetrofosmin (67 +/- 16 min) was also significantly shorter (p = 0.02) than for 99mTc-sestamibi (136 +/- 18 min). Heart-to-lung ratios for 99mTc-tetrofosmin (2.49 +/- 0.43 at 5 min to 2.66 +/- 0.55 at 60 min) and 99mTc-sestamibi (2.52 +/- 0.37 at 5 min to 2.95 +/- 0.50 at 60 min) were similar. Whereas heart-to-liver ratios for 99mTc-tetrofosmin (1.04 +/- 0.24 at 5 min, increasing to 1.51 +/- 0.44 at 60 min) were significantly higher from 30-60 min postinjection (p = 0.05 at 30 min to p = 0.02 at 60 min) compared to the 99mTc-sestamibi (0.83 + 0.16 at 5 min to 1.08 +/- 0.27 at 60 min).
Technetium-99m-tetrofosmin displays a shorter myocardial half-life compared to 99mTc-sestamibi. The rapid liver clearance of 99mTc-tetrofosmin, combined with comparable myocardial retention, resulted in higher heart-to-liver ratios but similar heart-to-lung contrasts compared to 99mTc-sestamibi from 30-60 min.
本研究旨在比较24例因常规灌注成像入院的异质性患者中99mTc-司他米比和99mTc-替曲膦的示踪剂动力学。
12例患者接受99mTc-替曲膦检查,12例接受99mTc-司他米比检查。每组中,6例患者冠心病可能性低,6例患者经血管造影证实冠状动脉狭窄>75%或有既往心肌梗死。利用平面应力图像分析心肌和肝脏摄取及清除情况以及靶器官对比。
与99mTc-司他米比相比,99mTc-替曲膦在5分钟(0.37±0.12计数/像素×MBq-1,p = 0.008)至60分钟(0.32±0.10计数/像素×MBq-1,p = 0.04)时心肌摄取更高。正常心肌中99mTc-替曲膦的生物半衰期(278±32分钟)明显短于99mTc-司他米比(680±45分钟)(p = 0.008)。99mTc-替曲膦的肝脏生物半衰期(67±16分钟)也明显短于99mTc-司他米比(136±18分钟)(p = 0.02)。99mTc-替曲膦的心脏与肺比值(5分钟时为2.49±0.43至60分钟时为2.66±0.55)和99mTc-司他米比(5分钟时为2.52±0.37至60分钟时为2.95±0.50)相似。而99mTc-替曲膦的心脏与肝脏比值(注射后30分钟时为1.04±0.24,60分钟时增至1.51±0.44)在注射后30 - 60分钟明显高于99mTc-司他米比(分别为0.83 + 0.16和1.08±0.27)(30分钟时p = 0.05,60分钟时p = 0.02)。
与99mTc-司他米比相比,99mTc-替曲膦的心肌半衰期更短。99mTc-替曲膦快速的肝脏清除,结合相当的心肌滞留,导致与99mTc-司他米比相比,在注射后30 - 60分钟心脏与肝脏比值更高,但心脏与肺对比相似。
