Shortened acquisition time in simultaneous 99mTc-tetrofosmin and 123I-β-methyl-p-iodophenyl pentadecanoic acid dual-tracer imaging with cadmium-zinc-telluride detectors in patients undergoing primary coronary intervention for acute myocardial infarction.
The use of cadmium-zinc-telluride-based scanners may increase the clinical feasibility of simultaneous dual-isotope imaging. In the current study, we sought to investigate a potential acquisition time in simultaneous Tc-tetrofosmin/I-β-methyl-p-iodophenyl pentadecanoic acid dual-isotope imaging using a Discovery NM/CT 670 cadmium-zinc-telluride.. Simultaneous Tc-tetrofosmin/I-β-methyl-p-iodophenyl pentadecanoic acid dual-isotope imaging was performed in 29 patients who had undergone primary percutaneous coronary intervention for acute myocardial infarction. Referenced images with an acquisition time of 65 s/view (16.25 min) were reframed to produce images with acquisition times of 33, 16, and 8 s/view. The values for the quantitative-gated single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and the quantitative perfusion SPECT were compared.. The quantitative-gated SPECT values for images with 33, 16, and 8 s/views showed good consistency with those for 65 s/view (the lower 95% confidence intervals for the intraclass correlation were ≥0.80). The quantitative perfusion SPECT values for Tc-tetrofosmin images with 33, 16, and 8 s/views also showed good consistency with those for 65 s/view; however, the quantitative perfusion SPECT values for I-β-methyl-p-iodophenyl pentadecanoic acid images with an acquisition time of 8 s/view were not consistent with the reference acquisition time of 65 s/view.. The quantitative-gated SPECT and quantitative perfusion SPECT values obtained from images with shorter acquisition times correlated with the values obtained from images with a reference acquisition time of 65 s/view; however, tracer-specific predisposition should be considered. These findings suggest that it is possible to reduce acquisition time when performing simultaneous Tc-tetrofosmin/I-β-methyl-p-iodophenyl pentadecanoic acid dual-tracer imaging with the novel cadmium-zinc-telluride scanner.
