Abstract

The utility of??- 123 I-hexadecanoic acid myocardial scintigraphy as a metabolic probe of cardiomyopathies was investigated. Sixteen patients with a variety of cardiomyopathies and myopathies that involve cardiac muscle and ten volunteers were imaged in the postabsorptive state in a 40?? LAO projection after a standard dose of??- 123 I-hexadecanoic acid. An elimination T 1/2 was calculated from the left ventricular myocardial time-activity curve. An uptake index, corrected for chest wall attenuation, was also computed in 7 of 10 volunteers and 8 of 16 patients.
