Thallium-201 myocardial perfusion imaging with dipyridamole was performed on 78 patients (pts) with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD). Twenty eight pts had normal coronary arteries (control group), and 50 pts had 50% or greater stenosis in one or more major coronary arteries (CAD group). In control group, aminophylline (Am) was infused intravenously on 12 pts during dipyridamole testing. Mean washout rate (WR) of these 12 pts was greater than that of 16 pts without Am (42% vs 35%, p less than 0.01). Then normal limit of WR was defined separately from the pts of control group with and without Am. The sensitivity for detecting the pts with CAD by WR analysis which normal limit was calculated separately with and without Am was 92% (46/50). When normal limit of WR was determined from all pts in control group, the sensitivity decreased to 84% (42/50). Am significantly affected thallium-201 washout during dipyridamole testing. WR of CAD pts should be estimated by specific set of normal limit with and without Am.

D011877 Radionuclide Imaging The production of an image obtained by cameras that detect the radioactive emissions of an injected radionuclide as it has distributed differentially throughout tissues in the body. The image obtained from a moving detector is called a scan, while the image obtained from a stationary camera device is called a scintiphotograph.

D003327 Coronary Disease An imbalance between myocardial functional requirements and the capacity of the CORONARY VESSELS to supply sufficient blood flow. It is a form of MYOCARDIAL ISCHEMIA (insufficient blood supply to the heart muscle) caused by a decreased capacity of the coronary vessels.

D000628 Aminophylline A drug combination that contains THEOPHYLLINE and ethylenediamine. It is more soluble in water than theophylline but has similar pharmacologic actions. It's most common use is in bronchial asthma, but it has been investigated for several other applications.
