  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

A whole body, multislice positron computed tomograph (PosiToLoGICA-II) was used to study the time course of concentration of 13Nfollowing intravenous administration of 13NH3 in the human heart, lungs and liver. Serial 30 seconds or I minute Positron-CT scans 6 to 7 minutes were performed immediately after intravenous adminis-tration of 13NH3 and time activity curves of the blood pool in the right and left ventricles, myocar-dium, lungs and liver were derived from these scans.

The first scan gave cardiac blood pool images and these intracavitary 13N activity disappeared rapidly thereafter. On the other hand the myocar-dial 13N activity remained nearly constant through-out the period of observation and high quality cross-sectional images of the left ventricular myocar-dium were obtained. The patients with myocardial infarction revealed diminished accumulaton of 13N at the sites corresponding to the infaction. In the lung, there was a moderate uptake of 13N and this was washed out more slowly than in the intra-cavitary blood pool. The liver revealed a late uptake of 13N. These observations may represent transference of metabolized 13NH3 .

As the results, the present study clealy demon-strated the usefulness of 13NH3N as an imaging agent not only to the heart but also to the lungs and liver.
