Abstract | 「要旨」99mTc-GSAを用いて肝機能を定量的に評価する際の新しい指標として以下の式で表されるExtraction Index(EI5)を考案した. EI5=(L5-L3)/(H3+H5)*PH/PL Ln, Hnはそれぞれ静注後n分における肝臓ROI, 心臓ROI内の総カウントであり, PL, PHは肝臓ROI, 心臓ROI内のピクセル数を表す. 40例の肝疾患患者にGSAを投与して血液データ(ChE, Alb, ZTT, PT, HPT, TB)と各指標との相関を検討した. LHL15とAlb値の相関が高いことを除き, EI5と血液データとの相関は, LHL15, HH15との相関と同等もしくはそれ以上であった. EI5は簡便かつ短時間に算出可能で, 血液データとの相関も良好であり, 実用的な新指標となりうるものと考えられる. またピクセル数で補正してあるために局所の肝機能評価を行いうる可能性も示唆される. |

Abstract | [Summary] Extraction index (EI5) was introduced to evaluate liver function quantitatively with 99mTc-GSA (GSA) scintigraphy, and it was compared with conventional indices; receptor index (LHL15) and clearance index (HH15). EI5 is expressed as following equation: EI5=(L5-L3)/(H3+H5)*PH/PL where L3, L5: counts at 3 or 5 minutes after the injection in the liver ROI, respectively, H3, H5: counts at 3 or 5 minutes in the heart ROI, respectively; PL, PH: numbers of pixels in the liver-and heart-ROI, respectively. We performed GSA scintigraphy in 40 patients with liver dysfunction and calculated values of the indices. Good correlations were observed between EI5 and liver function tests. Correlation coefficients were almost equal to or higher than those between conventional parameters and liver functional tests. EI5 was thought to be a practical index, and it could be calculated in a short time without aid of computer. Evaluation of local liver function may be possible, because EI5 was corrected with numbers of pixels in the liver-and heart-ROI; which was not considered in the conventional parameters. |
