[Value of (99m)Tc-MIBI/(18)F-FDG-dual-isotope simultaneous acquisition in diagnosis and treatment of myocardial infarction].

Objective: To investigate the value of(99m)Tc-MIBI/(18)F-FDG-dual-isotope simultaneous acquisition (DISA) in diagnosis and treatment of patients with myocardial infarction.

Methods: Sixty-three patients with myocardial infarction who underwent DISA before and after treatment were enrolled in the study. All cases were divided into subgroups based on different treatment and myocardial viability: Group A1 (n = 16) with coronary revascularization and viable myocardium, A2 (n = 9) same as A1 but no viable myocardium; B1 (n = 6) with coronary revascularization + stem cell transplantation and viable myocardium, B2 (n = 7) same as B1 but no vital myocardium; C1 (n = 8) with stem cell transplantation and viable myocardium, C2 (n = 17) same as C1 but on viable myocardium.
