Regional distributions of 99mTc-hexamethyl propyleneamine oxime (99mTc-HMPAO) and 99mTc-ethyl cysteinate dimer (99mTc-ECD) were compared in the normal brain.
Six paid, healthy volunteers (mean age 26 yr) had high-resolution neuroperfusion SPECT using both 99mTc-HMPAO and 99mTc-ECD on separate days.
Regional distribution of the two tracers differed. Technetium-99m-HMPAO accumulated more in the thalamus, frontal lobe, temporal lobe and cerebellum than 99mTc-ECD, which accumulated more in the occipital and parietal lobes. There was a considerable difference in the accumulation of the two tracers in the medial temporal lobe. The percent accumulations of 99mTc-HMPAO and 99mTc-ECD in the medial temporal lobe compared with the mean global cerebral cortical accumulation were 93.9% +/- 2.4% and 83.1% +/- 4.1% (mean +/- s.d.), respectively.
The results suggest that 99mTc-HMPAO and 99mTc-ECD require specific and separate criteria for diagnosing temporal lobe pathologies, such as dementia and temporal lobe epilepsy.
在正常大脑中比较了99m锝-六甲基丙烯胺肟(99mTc-HMPAO)和99m锝-半胱氨酸乙酯二聚体(99mTc-ECD)的区域分布。
6名有偿健康志愿者(平均年龄26岁)在不同日期分别使用99mTc-HMPAO和99mTc-ECD进行高分辨率神经灌注单光子发射计算机断层扫描(SPECT)。
两种示踪剂的区域分布不同。99m锝-HMPAO在丘脑、额叶、颞叶和小脑中的积聚比99mTc-ECD更多,而99mTc-ECD在枕叶和顶叶中的积聚更多。两种示踪剂在颞叶内侧的积聚存在显著差异。与全脑平均皮质积聚相比,99mTc-HMPAO和99mTc-ECD在颞叶内侧的积聚百分比分别为93.9%±2.4%和83.1%±4.1%(平均值±标准差)。
结果表明,99mTc-HMPAO和99mTc-ECD在诊断颞叶病变(如痴呆和颞叶癫痫)时需要特定且不同的标准。
