The effect of F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography imaging on decision making in the selection of patients with impaired ventricular function for revascularization was determined in 87 patients. In 57% of patients, positron emission tomography data influenced management decisions, indicating an important effect of myocardial viability determination on difficult therapy decisions in these patients.
在87例患者中确定了F-18氟脱氧葡萄糖正电子发射断层扫描成像对选择心室功能受损患者进行血运重建决策的影响。在57%的患者中,正电子发射断层扫描数据影响了治疗决策,表明心肌存活性测定对这些患者艰难的治疗决策具有重要影响。
