[One-hour protocol stress myocardial scintigraphy: prospective study of diagnostic accuracy for the detection of coronary artery stenosis].

Abstract:

:A one-hour protocol for stress myocardial scintigraphy using technetium-99m-tetrofosmin (Tc-tetrofosmin) was compared with coronary arteriography for the detection of coronary artery stenosis in 90 consecutive patients without prior myocardial infarction, revascularization procedure or vasospastic angina. Tc-tetrofosmin stress myocardial scintigraphy acquired a rest image 20 min after intravenous administration of Tc-tetrofosmin (185 MBq, 1/5 vial) using a three-head gamma camera collecting 20-sec views over 360 degrees. The stress test using bicycle ergometer was performed and administration of Tc-tetrofosmin (740 MBq, 4/5 vial) was repeated at the peak stress point. The stress image was acquired 15 min after the second injection with 5-sec views over 360 degrees. Coronary arteriography revealed the presence of significant coronary artery stenosis (> 75%) in 56 vessels of 45 patients, including 35 patients with single-vessel disease, 5 with two-vessel disease, 2 with three-vessel disease, and 3 with left main trunk disease. The overall sensitivity and specificity for the detection of coronary artery disease by visual analysis were 91.1% and 77.8%, respectively, and by quantitative analyses (using bull's-eye method) were 95.6% and 91.1%, respectively. The individual stenotic vessel sensitivities in the right coronary artery, left anterior descending artery, and left circumflex artery were 84.6%, 90.9%, and 78.6%, respectively. The specificities were 97.3%, 95.9%, and 100.0%, respectively. These results suggest that stress myocardial scintigraphy using the present new protocol is a promising approach for the detection of coronary artery stenosis.
