Zusammenfassung: | This study aimed investigate whether thallium-201 and technetium-99m pyrophosphate dual rest-redistribution emission computed tomography early after intracoronary thrombolysis may provide supplementary information for the management of patients with acute myocardial infarction. Fifty patients who re-ceived intracoronary thrombolysis underwent simultaneous dual emission computed tomography 3 days after first acute myocardial infarction. A11 patients who had a technetium-99m pyrophosphate accumulation were selected. Thallium-201/technetium-99m pyrophosphate overlap in the initial and delayed images early after intracoronary thrombolysis identified successful recanalization with sensitivities of 68% and 90% (p |
