Abstract
Myocellular kinetics of 201Tl, 99mTc-MIBI, 99mTc-tetrofosmin and 99mTc-furifosmin were investigated using retrogradely-perfused guinea-pig hearts. Relative retention decreased in the order 99mTc-MIBI ==> 99mTc-tetrofosmin ==> 99mTc-furifosmin. 201Tl and 99mTc-MIBI exhibited bi- (t1,t2), 99mTc-tetrofosmin and 99mTc-furifosmin triexponential (t1,t2,t3) time-activity-curves. Latest-phase elimination-half-life increased from 201Tl (t2) ==> 99mTc-MIBI (t2) ==> 99mTc-tetrofosmin (t3) ==> 99mTc-furifosmin (t3), showing a significant increase in deteriorating myocardium for all tracers but 99mTc-furifosmin. Delayed elimination in deteriorating myocardium explains at least partly the redistribution phenomenon of 201Tl, and suggests a similar phenomenon for 99mTc-MIBI and 99mTc-tetrofosmin.Entities:
