Myocardial imaging using emission computed tomography. 1978

J W Keyes, and P F Leonard, and D J Svetkoff, and S L Brody, and W L Rogers, and B R Lucchesi

Single-photon emission computed tomography (ECT) was evaluated during myocardial studies in dogs. Acute anterior and posterior infarcts were imaged following injection of 99mTc-pyrophosphate or 201Tl. In most cases, tomographic delineation of infarct location and extent correlated with tissue section. The 99mTc images were far superior to the 201Tl images. ECT improves delineation of tracer within the myocardium.

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.

D004601 Elementary Particles Individual components of atoms, usually subatomic; subnuclear particles are usually detected only when the atomic nucleus decays and then only transiently, as most of them are unstable, often yielding pure energy without substance, i.e., radiation.
