Topograhic relation between the myocardial uptake of radiothallium and left ventricular kinetics in myocardial infarction

T Planiol, R Itti, A Pellois and M Brochier

Myocardial images with thallium 201 are recorded on a computer with the ECG tracing and the cardiac cycle divided into 16 consecutive images. The patients then recieve 99Tcm albumin for first pass and a subsequent ECG gated series for comparison with the myocardial studies. These images can be superimposed and allow the topographic relationships of thallium uptake and ventricular contractility as reflected by the blood pool, to be seen. Quantitative parameters such as ejection fraction and stroke volume are also obtained. Examples in clinical practice are given.
