Twenty-one anesthetized and thoracotamized dogs were studied. Scintigrams of the heart were recorded using a continuous infusion of krypton-81m into the aortic sinuses as well as intravenous injections of thallium-201. A gamma camera linked to a digital computer was used to record the myocardial distribution of these tracers. The distribution of 2O1T1 was similar to that of 81mKr when myocardial blood flow was normal (seven dogs). In 14 dogs, the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) was narrowed to produce a regional decrease in myocardial blood flow. Blood flow changes were measured with an electromagnetic flowprobe. When the epicardial ECG was normal in seven dogs, the 201Tl scintigram showed no regional decreases in activity when the tracer was delivered after LAD narrowing. In contrast, a decrease in the activity of 81mKr was observed in the region supplied by the LAD. When the decrease in blood flow was associated with ECG signs of ischemia in seven dogs, both 8lmKr and 2O1T1 scintigrams showed decreased activity in the ischemic area. The cardiac distribution of 201Tl was determined in five dogs while myocardial blood flow and metabolism were normal. LAD narrowing then produced 24 hours of severe myocardial ischemia. The distribution of creatine kinase activity in the left ventricle (U/mg DNA) was similar to the distribution of 2O1T1 (counts/mg DNA), r = 0.83; P = < 0.001. These studies suggest that 2O1T1 scintigraphy of the heart can demonstrate decreases in regional myocardial perfusion only when metabolism is disturbed.
