Assessment of regional wall motion in coronary artery disease using radionuclide methods. 1978

E Ogris, and O Pachinger, and H Sochor, and P Probst, and G Joskowicz, and F Kaindl

72 patients with CAD, 10 patients with congestive cardiomyopathies and 10 normal subjects were evaluated by radionuclide angiography. Comparison with contrast angiography showed good results for LVEF (r = 0.83). Regional asynergies observed in the radionuclide angiography correlated well with defects in thallium scintigrams. Extent of abnormal wall motion was measured and compared with normals, appreciating the deviation from the normal mean radial shortening. Good correlation could be demonstrated with radionuclide ventriculography. In 80% of congestive cardiomyopathies the right ventricle wall became visible in the thallium scintigram.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009202 Cardiomyopathies A group of diseases in which the dominant feature is the involvement of the CARDIAC MUSCLE itself. Cardiomyopathies are classified according to their predominant pathophysiological features (DILATED CARDIOMYOPATHY; HYPERTROPHIC CARDIOMYOPATHY; RESTRICTIVE CARDIOMYOPATHY) or their etiological/pathological factors (CARDIOMYOPATHY, ALCOHOLIC; ENDOCARDIAL FIBROELASTOSIS).

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.
