Technetium-99m sestamibi for the assessment of myocardial salvage following reperfusion therapy in acute myocardial infarction

Reperfusion therapy with either thrombolysis or angioplasty has been shown to be beneficial in acute myocardial infarction. Tc-99m sestamibi is a myocardial tracer that can be used to assess myocardial salvage because of its property of very limited redistribution. To assess the feasibility of this...
