[Improved method of equilibrium radionuclide ventriculography]. 1988

G S Davidzon, and B N Miasnik

The commonly used method of static radionuclide ventriculography with a cardiosynchronizer does not permit obtaining a curve of ventricular function over a complete cardiac cycle, especially using computers with a small memory volume. Besides, the final segment of a curve is usually insignificant as a result of variations in a duration of the R-R interval. A method of 2-stage recording of radionuclide ventriculography has been proposed, the second stage being shifted to a certain time interval, i. e. a delay line is introduced between a synchronizing device and computer. Two methods of delay--in the software and hardware--are proposed, the latter being more preferable as it makes unnecessary extra technical devices. Particular attention is drawn to a choice of delay time depending on a computer memory volume: in a small memory volume delay time must be approximately one-third of the patient's R-R interval.

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.
