Dipyridamole thallium-201 imaging pre- and post-coronary angioplasty for assessment of regional myocardial ischemia in humans

To examine the effect of coronary angioplasty on myocardial perfusion and to examine anatomic correlates of dipyridamole-thallium images, we performed dipyridamole thallium scanning before and after 24 angioplasty procedures in 23 patients with clinical ischemia. Dipyridamole thallium tomography was...

Zusammenfassung:To examine the effect of coronary angioplasty on myocardial perfusion and to examine anatomic correlates of dipyridamole-thallium images, we performed dipyridamole thallium scanning before and after 24 angioplasty procedures in 23 patients with clinical ischemia. Dipyridamole thallium tomography was performed 1 to 4 (mean ± S.D. 1.5 ± 0.9) days before and 1 to 25 (6.3 ± 6.9) days after angioplasty. Coronary angioplasty was anatomically successfull (
