We have evaluated the biodistribution and metabolism of iodine-123-15-(p-iodophenyl)-3-R,S-methyl pentadecanoic acid (BMIPP) in the presence of increased lactate levels induced by short-term heavy exercise. Five healthy male subjects received 159 MBq (+/- 13 MBq) 123I-BMIPP at rest and a week later
We have evaluated whether myocardial uptake of the fatty acid analog 123I-15-(p-iodophenyl)-3-R,S-methyl pentadecanoic acid (BMIPP) is dependent on the dietary state.
METHODS
We compared the biodistribution of 150 MBq of 123I-BMIPP in six healthy volunteers in two states: after at least 12 hr of
The authors present a 71-year-old woman who had a right chylothorax after right upper lobectomy for lung cancer. As the chylothorax was considered to be due to thoracic duct injury at the time of operation, lymphoscintigraphy was performed by oral administration of I-123 beta-methyl-iodophenyl
Discordant uptake (mismatching) of 123I-labeled beta-methyl-piodophenyl-pentadecanoic acid (BMIPP) less than 99mTc-labeled methoxyisobutyl isonitrile (MIBI) is a good predictor of myocardial viability. However, methodological factors can influence assessment of the presence of mismatching because of
We report a case of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) with apical left ventricular aneurysm, which is difficult to review because cases are so rare. A 54-year-old Japanese man was first found to have an electrocardiographic abnormality (T-wave inversion at rest) 19 years ago, and non-obstructive
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the use of orally administered iodine-123-labeled 15-(4-iodophenyl)-3(R,S)-methyl-pentadecanoic acid (I-123 BMIPP) for thoracic duct imaging in normal and pathologic states and to study the tracer distribution and dynamics in healthy participants.
METHODS
The radiotracer was
BACKGROUND
To evaluate the possibility of predicting the development of doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy, we performed quantitative assessment of the early kinetics of iodine-123 beta-methyl-iodophenyl-pentadecanoic acid (I-123 BMIPP) by means of dynamic myocardial SPECT.
METHODS
Thirty-six
