In 70 patients with angiographically confirmed coronary heart disease and in 10 controls, a 4 h exercise (E)(injection of 150 MBq ºTc-MIBI) rest (R)(800 MBq) protocol was employed. Of these, 10 patients with 21 myocardial defects after E received a third injection 24 h after. SPECT was used to image myocardial distribution, and visual findings separated three patterns of perfusion defects after E v. R (reversible [REV], partial reversible (PREV), irreversible (IRR)). Relative regional uptake was obtained from a target-like (33 ROIs) evaluation of short-axis cuts, establishing a perfusion index (PI) by relating the defect uptake to individual maximum uptake (100%) after exercise (PIE), at rest (PIR) and the respective differences Delta PI (PIR-PIE, ie filling in by the second ºTcº-MIBI injection). Visually, the sensitivity was 86% in patients or 69% in involved vessels (stenoses of> 33%). Vascular supply areas revealed minimal PIE values of 74.7+ 10.6%(control), 624: 9.2%(REV), 46.1: t7. 7%(PREV) and 33.5: t 9.9%(IRR)(p< 0, 01). Delta PI was+ 13.2% or+ 10, 1% in REV or PREV (ns) and+ 2.1% in IRR (p< 0.01) or–0.2% in controls. PIE values did not correlate to the degree of stenosis. In areas with old myocardial infarction, the same sequence of significant decrease of PIE with reversibility occurred, independent of the patency of the supplying vessel. 33 of 35 IRR defects (94.3%) revealed PIE of< 45%, thus predicting IRR already after the E examination. PIR values from the 4 h protocol correlated to PIR values 24 h thereafter with r= 0.94 (n= 21)." Tcº-MIBI may be employed in a short one day ER protocol in clinical routine. Evaluation of PI seems to be a
