چکیده

Introduction: We aimed to investigate the effect of right bundle branch block (RBBB) on perfusion and functional parameters in dipyridamole stress/rest Tc99m-MIBI gated myocardial perfusion SPECT (GSPECT) which may be helpful in interpretation of myocardial perfusion imaging. Methods: We studied 73 patients with low pre-test likelihood of coronary artery disease in two groups:  38 patients with RBBB and 35 subjects with normal ECG. Both groups underwent two-day dipyridamole stress–rest Tc99m-MIBI GSPECT. Two groups were matched. There was no significant difference in sex and age variable between two groups. Results: Visual calculated SSS and SRS in all patients were between 0 and 3. Regarding the prone images, diaphragmatic attenuation and breast attenuation, all patients GSPECT findings were within normal limits. There was no significant difference in TID ratio between two groups:  RBBB group: TID ratio= 1.02±0.16 and control group: TID ratio= 0.96±0.14 (P=0.09). There was no significant difference in left ventricular end-systolic volume, end-diastolic volume, ejection fraction, summed stress and rest motion & thickening scores between RBB patients group and control group. No regional LV wall motion abnormality was noticed in any patient in either group. Conclusion: High normality rate of the LV myocardial perfusion and functional indices in the presence of RBBB was noticed in gated Dipyridamole stress/rest Tc-99m sestamibi myocardial perfusion SPECT.  No remarkable false positive perfusion findings or abnormal LV functional indices acquired by GSPECT in this group of patients.

COI مخفف عبارت CIVILICA Object Identifier به معنی شناسه سیویلیکا برای اسناد است. COI کدی است که مطابق محل انتشار، به مقالات کنفرانسها و ژورنالهای داخل کشور به هنگام نمایه سازی بر روی پایگاه استنادی سیویلیکا اختصاص می یابد.

کد COI به مفهوم کد ملی اسناد نمایه شده در سیویلیکا است و کدی یکتا و ثابت است و به همین دلیل همواره قابلیت استناد و پیگیری دارد.
