Tc MIBI • 99 m. Tc-pyrophosphat Indications: l myocardial infarctus l heart angina - positif diagnostic, - differential diagnostic - prognostic quantification langiographic stenosis Contraindications, limits: Contraindications: - pregnancy (all scintigraphy types) - effort test contraindications Limits: - the treatment Drugs that can influence the scintigraphy: - beta blocants: 72 h - calcium channels blocants: 48– 72 ore - long actions nitrates : 12 ore Images types: - planar, anterior, OAL - 45 and 60 , posterior. . . - tomography: SPECT: 180 rotation (60 images) : from OAR 45 to OPL 135. PET 99 m. Tc MIBI scintigraphy: Work protocol : rest and stress (effort or pharmacological) scintigraphy reversible ischemia test: effort increase cardiac rate increase myocardial oxygen necessary coronary artery vasodilatation normal + stenosed – sanguine flux increase (x 4) partial sanguine flux increase (x 2) normal image myocardial ischemia Pharmacological stress: Principle: the same Drugs: adenosine, dipiridamol, adenozintriphosphat Interpretation rest stress Stable defect : + + Reversible defect : + Partially reversible defect: +/+ Thyroid scintigraphyThyrodRadiopharmaceuticals definitionRadiolabeling definitionStability testing radiopharmaceuticalsPico question myocardial infarctionMyocardial infarctionStemiLatin and greek prefixes
