Radioactivity
It is the spontaneous
disintegration (decay) of the
nucleus of a radioactive atom - in
which the number of protons and
neutrons are not stable - and
various type of radiation (, -,
+, ) comes out from the
nucleus.

Number of protons
= elemental identity number
Number of protons and neutrons
= mass number
- Atoms with the same number of protons
but differing number of neutrons are called
isotopes of that element.
-The behaviour of the different radioactive
isotopes of an atom is the same as the
stable form in every conditions.
- Using the radioactive material as a tracer
(Hevesy György 1923).

- really electromagnetic radiation
- physically similar to X-rays, but it comes
out from the nucleus of the atom
- very penetrated and easily pass trough
tissue
- SO: it can be detected externally well, it
can be used for diagnostics

Radionuclide studies
- are based on the function of an organ or
an organ system
- are very sensitive, but aspecific
methods
- are easily performed
- need no any premedication
- are not associated with any morbidity
and complication
![Page 10: Nuclear cardiology - PTE ÁOK](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022012810/61bfdba28a625b3bb32224ef/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Static examinations (scintigraphy):
− an optimal time-period after the subject
administration is delayed and several photos
(or SPECT slices) are made of the organ from
different directions
Dynamic studies:
− a frame-serie is stored in the computer from the
time of the isotope injection during an optimal
time-period of the examined organ function

„First passage” study
• The radioactive subject: 99mTc-DTPA (rapid
movement from the body through the kidneys)
• Fast circulation through the heart and the lung
• „Bolus” of the injection (rapid administration
in a small volume) is important
• Cardio-pulmonary circulation times, cardiac
output, stroke volume
• Indications: cor pulmonale, primer pulmonary
hypertony, myocardial infarction, hyperkinetic
circulation, intracardial left-to-right shunt

Radionuclide ventriculography (RNV),
or multigated analysis (MUGA)
• The blood-pool of the heart is labelled by
isotope (99mTc-pyrophosphate-RBC),
and study is performed in equilibrium
• Gamma-camera-computer-R wave monitor
system synchronizes the acquisition to
R wave of ECG
• EF: ED-ES/ED-BG (LAO 30
projection)
• Wall-motion is analysed by parametric
pictures (LAO 30
and LAO 70
projections)
• Indications: myocardial infarction,
cardiomyopathy

A representative cycle
300-600 cardiac cycles are collected within each R-R
interval and an average cycle is generated by computer
from ED to ED. 16 or 32 frames are made from this cycle.

The detectors whirl around the patient and
makes pictures from different steps.
The transversal, sagittal and coronal slices of

Myocardial perfusion imaging
in rest
• The myocardium is labelled by radioactive agent:
- 99mTc-MIBI, 99mTc-tetrofosmin: mitochondria
- 201Tl-clorid: Na-K pump
• Reconstruated and reorientated slices are created
from the left ventricle by SPECT or SPECT/CT
(attenuation correction)
• The impairment of the myocardial perfusion is
indicated by decreased activity or lack of the
activity
• Indications: myocardial infarction

Viability examination of the myocardium
• When similar fix defect is found in stress
and rest situation (scar, hibernated, stunned
myocardium) to assess the possibility for
succesful revascularization.
• 201Tl-chlorid has a specific redistribution
pattern after 3-4 hours in rest, which
depends on the wash-out from the myocytes.
• After the reinjection the activity of the
myocardium depends on primarily the
perfusion by the coronary arteries.

- too many protons are in the nucleus
- its life is very short, when it slows down, it combines with a normal electron in a process known annihilation, which destroyes both the electron and positron and produces two energetic photons each with 511 keV
- they are used for PET examinations
- isotopes with ultrashort half-life (11C, 15O,
13N, 18F)
- e.g. 18Fluor-FDG to study the metabolic
changes of the heart, the brain and the
various tumors

The coronary
angiogram was
acquired using CT,
while the surface of
the myocardium is
coloured using the
data of the ammonia
PET stress perfusion
scan done during the
PET-CT examination.
It can be clearly seen
that territories in the
distal LAD region are
blue, which signifies
reduced stress
perfusion.

Differential diagnosis • Intracardial left-to-right shunt, chronic cor
pulmonale:
• „first passage” study
• Acut myocardial infarction, myocardial scar,
cardiomyopathy:
• rest myocardial perfusion study
• radionuclide ventriculography (MUGA)
• Pectoral angina, coronary artery disease:
• stress/rest myocardial perfusion study
• Viability before revascularization:
• glucose metabolism by PET/CT
