Abstract「要旨」全身用ポジトロンCT装置を用いてN-13アンモニアの心筋多層ポジトロンCT (PCT) 像を作成し, その特長をタリウムシングルフォトンECT (SPECT) と対比検討した. Derenzo phantomではPCTは2.5〜3.0mmのhot spotの描出が可能なのに対し, SPECTでは5.0mmがかろうじて分解できたにすぎず, PCTは分解能にすぐれていた. 臨床例11例の安静時の検討でもPCTは高い分解能と多い収集カウントのため, SPECTに比べ画像が鮮明であり, 心筋壁は薄く, 乳頭筋も描出可能で, 全例で右室の描出もみられた. また心筋梗塞8例中2例に肺 (とりわけ背側肺) へのアンモニアの集積増加がみられ, 肺うっ血の評価に有用と考えられた. 一方SPECTは, 心筋が厚く描出され, 右室や肺の評価には困難であった. 心筋梗塞8例全例でPCT, SPECTともに病変を検出することができた. ただSPECTは横断断層像だけでなく, 任意の断層像の再構成が容易にでき, 病変の広がりを把握するうえで有利と考えられた.

Abstract[Summary] Myocardial positron computed tomography (PCT) was obtained in 11 cases and the images were compared with thallium-201 single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) . The myocardial PCT was performed at rest after 10-20mCi of N-13 labeled ammonia injection using whole-body multislice PCT device (PositologicaIII) . The PCT clearly delineated 25-3.0mm hot spots while the SPECT barely showed 5.0mm hot spots of Derenzo phantom. The myocardial images looked better in PCT because of the better spatial resolution and count statistics. The myocardium looked thinner and the papillary muscle was visualized by PCT. The PCT also showed the right ventricle in each case. Furthermore, PCT detected increased lung uptake of ammonia in 2 of the 8 cases with myocardial infarction, suggesting presence of pulmonary congestion. Perfusion defect was clearly seen by PCT as well as SPECT. However, the cardiac short-axis and long-axis sections which were easily obtained by SPECT were useful for the localization of the lesion. We conclude that both PCT and SPECT were valuable for the assessment of coronary artery disease.
