Preliminary clinical application of 131I-mIBG in myocardial imaging
AbstractAbstract
[en] The preliminary clinical uses of 131I-mIBG in 13 cases of adrenal medulla imaging and 6 cases of myocardial infarction imaging were reported. Normal myocardial imaging or no imaging was obtained in the former cases, while radioactive defect was found in infarcted site. It is thus suggested that 131I-mIBG myocardial imaging would be helpful for the diagnosis of myocadial infarction. Besides, it may be also used in diagnosis of pheochromocytoma and the investigation of catecholamine metabolism in myocardium
