Background The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility of assessing absolute myocardial 99mTc-HMDP uptake in patients with suspected cardiac ATTR using SUV with a whole-body CZT SPECT-CT camera (DNM670CZT). Methods Fifteen patients with suspected cardiac ATTR (Perugini >= 2) underwent a conventional 99mTc-HMDP planar imaging and a thoracic SPECT/CT using a DNM 670CZT. A control group consisted of 15 patients with negative scintigraphy (Perugini < 2). SUVmax (mg center dot L-1) and percentage of injected dose (%ID) were calculated in a cardiac volume of interest (VOI) encompassing the left ventricle. VOIs were also placed in the lung, the right pectoris major, and the sternum. A heart-to-lung SUVmax ratio (HLR) was calculated. Results All ATTR patients demonstrated an increased cardiac HMDP SUVmax (12.2 +/- 3.7 mg center dot L-1) vs controls (3.5 +/- 1.2,P < .0001). Percentage of ID, pectoral uptake and HLR were significantly higher in the ATTR group (1.1 +/- 0.3 vs 0.15 +/- 0.8,P < .0001; 1.5 +/- 0.3 vs 0.9 +/- 0.3,P < .0001; 9.7 +/- 3 vs 4.3 +/- 2.2,P < .0001). Bone uptake was not statistically different between the two groups. Conclusion This study demonstrated the feasibility of quantitative 99mTc-HMDP SUVmax measurement using a whole-body SPECT/CT CZT camera in patients with suspected cardiac ATTR.
