Abstract
The regional myocardial distribution of 131I-16-iodo-9-hexadecenoic acid (131I-HA) and 201Tl-thallium chloride (201TlCl) was determined in normal dogs and after occlusion of a coronary artery. The uptake of 131I-HA was about 20% lower than that of 201TlCl but the ratio 201Tl/131I was the same for the whole myocardium within narrow limits for normal as well as infarcted tissue. The potential of 123I-HA as a radiopharmaceutical for diagnosis of myocardial defects is discussed.Entities:
