Relation between regional myocardial uptake of rubidium-82 and perfusion: absolute reduction of cation uptake in ischemia

Abstract

Experiments were undertaken using rubidium-82 and position tomography to examine the relation between myocardial perfusion and cation uptake during acute ischemia. Rubidium-82 was repeatedly eluted from a strontium-82-rubidium-82 generator. In six dogs emission tomograms were used to measure the delivered arterial and myocardial concentrations at rest and after coronary stenosis, stress and ischemia. There was a poor overall relation between regional myocardial uptake and flow measured by microspheres and a large individual variability. Extraction of rubidium-82 was inversely related to flow. Significant regional reduction of cation uptake was detected in the tomograms when regional flow decreased by more than 35 percent. This reduction was significantly greater when ischemia was present. A small but significantly greater when ischemia was present. A small but significant decrease (33.0 +/- 9.1 percent, mean +/- standard deviation) in the myocardial uptake of rubidium-82 was detected only when flow was increased by more than 120 percent in relation to a control area after administration of dypiridamole. The technique using rubidum-82 and tomography was applied in five volunteers and five patients with angina pectoris and corona...Continue Reading

Cardiovascular Diseases: Risk Factors

Cardiovascular disease is a significant health concern. Risk factors include hypertension, obesity, dyslipidemia and smoking. Women who are postmenopausal are at an increased risk of heart disease. Here is the latest research for risk factors of cardiovascular disease.
