Abstract |
123I-Iodine-metaiodobenzylguanidine(MIBG) which is a
norepinephrine analogue, can be used to evaluate the
sympathetic innervation of the heart. In this study,
cardiac imaging with 123I-MIBG was performed in
patients with 9 dilated cardiomyopathy, 2 ischemic
cardiomyopathy and 1 acute myocardial infarction to
evaluate the sympathetic nervous function. 123II-MIBG
imaging showed multifocal defects (8), diffuse defect
(2), near non-visualization (2). The defects of MIBG
scans were found to be larger and more severe on 4
hours image than 30 minutes. Heart to lung, heart to
mediastinum ratios were decreased at 4 hours than those
at 30 minutes. Measured LVEF values were not correlated
with the severity of MIBG uptake. Tc-99m-MIBI imaging
was also performed in all patients to find the
relationship with 123I-MIBG scan. Tc-99m-MIBI scan
showed multifocal defects in 9 patients, diffuse
defects in 1 patient and no defect in 2 patients. The
defects are similar in size, severity and extent, but
more larger and severe on 123I-MIBG imaging. Therefore,
cardiac 123I-MIBG imaging is a useful method to
evaluate the sympathetic nervous function in
cardiomyopathy. |
