Cardiac sympathetic burden reflects Parkinson disease burden, regardless of high or low orthostatic blood pressure changes

npj Parkinson's Disease, 2021
Reduced uptake of 123I-meta-iodobenzylguanidine (123I-MIBG) and orthostatic hypotension (OH) are independently associated with worse clinical outcomes of Parkinson’s disease (PD). However, their interactive influence on PD has not been studied.

123I-MIBG Imaging: Patient Preparation and Technologist's Role [PDF]

Journal of Nuclear Medicine Technology, 2015
The radiopharmaceutical (123)I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) was approved by the Food and Drug Administration in March 2013 for the assessment of myocardial sympathetic innervation in the evaluation of patients with heart failure and an ejection fraction of no more than 35%.

Comparison of high-specific-activity ultratrace 123/131I-MIBG and carrier-added 123/131I-MIBG on efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and tissue distribution [PDF]

, 2010
Metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) is an enzymatically stable synthetic analog of norepinephrine that when radiolabled with diagnostic ((123)I) or therapeutic ((131)I) isotopes has been shown to concentrate highly in sympathetically innervated tissues such ...

Prediction of long-term cardiac events by 123I-MIBG imaging after acute myocardial infarction and reperfusion therapy [PDF]

Asia Oceania Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Biology, 2019
Objective(s): In heart failure, the heart-to-mediastinum (H/M) ratio of the delayed image and washout rate (WR) are well-known as a powerful cardiac event predictors.

Two Cases of Hereditary Paraganglioma-Pheochromocytoma Syndrome in Siblings, Caused by a Novel Succinate Dehydrogenase Complex Subunit D Variant. [PDF]

IJU Case Rep
ABSTRACT Introduction Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas are increasingly recognized as hereditary malignancies, with ~30%–40% of cases involving germline variants. We report a familial case of hereditary pheochromocytoma‐paraganglioma syndrome caused by a novel variant in the SDHD gene.

Renal sympathetic nerve activity after catheter-based renal denervation

EJNMMI Research, 2018
Background Catheter-based renal sympathetic denervation (RDN) has been considered a potential treatment for therapy resistant hypertension (RHT). However, in a randomized placebo-controlled trial, RDN did not lead to a substantial blood pressure (BP ...
