Background/Introduction Although both the presence of 99mTc-sestamibi/123I-BMIPP mismatch and the reverse redistribution of 99mTc-sestamibi in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) are known to significant markers for predicting the improvement of left ventricular (LV) wall motion in the infarcted territory in chronic phase, few studies evaluated them by simultaneous dual-isotope (99mTc-sestamibi/123I-BMIPP) imaging using cadmium-zinc-telluride (CZT) SPECT system. Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether the presence of 99mTc-sestamibi/123I-BMIPP mismatch or the reverse redistribution of 99mTc-sestamibi make better prediction of the improvement of LV wall motion in the infarcted territory. Methods We evaluated 30 consecutive patients with AMI who had undergone both dual-isotope (99mTc-sestamibi/123I-BMIPP) SPECT in acute phase and stress myocardial SPECT using 99mTc-tracers in chronic phase by Discovery NM530c. Both 99mTc-sestamibi/123I-BMIPP mismatch and reverse redistribution of 99mTc-sestamibi were determined using traditional definition. The improvement of LV wall motion in the infarcted territory from acute phase to chronic phase was assessed using QGS. Results Of 30 patients, the improvement of LV wall motion in the infarcted territory from acute phase to chronic phase was found in 20 patients. Both the presence of 99mTc-sestamibi/123I-BMIPP mismatch and reverse redistribution of 99mTc-sestamibi were significantly linked to predict the improvement of LV wall motion (p=0.0001, p=0.011, respectively). The respective sensitivities, specificities and accuracies in the prediction of the improvement of LV wall motion in the infarcted territory were 90%, 90% and 90% with 99mTc-sestamibi/123I-BMIPP mismatch, and 60%, 90%, 70% with reverse redistribution of 99mTc-sestamibi. Conclusions In the simultaneous 99mTc-sestamibi/123I-BMIPP dual-isotope imaging using CZT SPECT system, both the presence of 99mTc-sestamibi/123I-BMIPP mismatch and the reverse redistribution of 99mTc-sestamibi in acute phase are useful for predicting the improvement of LV wall motion in chronic phase, but the presence of 99mTc-sestamibi/123I-BMIPP mismatch is superior to the reverse redistribution of 99mTc-sestamibi for it.
