Quantitative assessment of cerebral blood flow using technetium-99m-hexamethyl-propyleneamine oxime: Part I, Design of a mathematical model.

abstract：:Reinjection images were obtained in 23 patients with myocardial infarction by the additional injection of 37 MBq of thallium-201 after obtaining 4 hour delayed images on exercise thallium-201 SPECT (TSPECT). A redistribution index (RI) was derived of the changes in perfusion defects between immediate and 4 hour delaye...
