Role of the left ventricular cavity-to-myocardium count ratio in resting technetium-99m-Sestamibi SPECT in the recovery of myocardial function after thrombolytic therapy in patients with acute myocardial infarction
The aim of this study was to assess the value of the Cavity-to-Myocardium count ratio (CM ratio) calculated in the resting 99mTc-Sestamibi SPECT images to identify myocardial functioning status and recovery of myocardial function in patients with acute myocardial insult who have received thrombolytic therapy. The study demonstrates that the resting 99mTc-Sestamibi SPECT CM ratio can be used to ...

Why PET Will Beat SPECT
The next generation of positron emission tomography (PET) imaging agents will herald an age when PET will eclipse single photon emission computed tomog- raphy (SPECT) as the “go to” modality for molecular imaging. It will do so by enabling personalized medicine through precision diagnostics, the ability to be delivered cost-effectively in a manner with less radiation to patients, by ...

What are Radionuclide Drug Conjugates (RDCs)?
Coupling drugs combine the precise targeting and potent killing properties, has become a widely recognized form of medication in recent years. Radioactive drug conjugates (RDCs), as a particular form of coupling drugs, are formed by combining radioactive isotopes with disease-targeting molecules. According to the application of RDCs, they can be divided into two main categories: diagnostic RDCs ...
