Reclassification of Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction Following Cardiac Sympathetic Nervous System Activation: A New Cutoff Value of 58%

Tomography, 2022
Heart failure (HF) with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is a heterogeneous syndrome. An LVEF of 50% is widely used to categorize patients with HF; however, this is controversial. Previously, we have reported that patients with an LVEF

Incremental prognostic value of cardiac metaiodobenzylguanidine imaging over the co‐morbid burden in acute decompensated heart failure

ESC Heart Failure, 2021
Aims Co‐morbidities are associated with poor clinical outcomes in patients with chronic heart failure, while cardiac iodine‐123 (I‐123) metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) imaging provides prognostic information in such patients.

Acquisition Protocols and Correction Methods for Estimation of the Heart-to-Mediastinum Ratio in ¹²³I-Metaiodobenzylguanidine Cardiac Sympathetic Imaging [PDF]

Journal of Nuclear Medicine, 2013
Septal penetration of high-energy photons affects quantitative results in imaging of (123)I-labeled tracers. We investigated acquisition protocols (collimator choice and energy window setting) and correction methods for estimating the heart-to-mediastinum (H/M) ratio in cardiac (123)I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) imaging.Four hours after (123)I-MIBG ...
