1. Nuclear Medicine Methods for Assessment of Chronic Chagas Heart Disease
Abstract Several different imaging methods can be used to evaluate patients with Chagas heart disease (CHD) for diagnostic and prognostic purposes, including plain chest radiography; echocardiography; myocardial perfusion scintigraphy, for detection of ischemia and fibrosis; radionuclide gated-angiography, for evaluation of biventricular function; 123I-MIBG

2. Comparison between clinical stratification and myocardial perfusion scintigraphy as a predictor of cardiovascular events in kidney transplant candidates / Comparação entre a estratificação clínica e a cintilografia de perfusão miocárdica como preditores de eventos cardiovasculares em candidatos a transplante renal
Cardiovascular (CV) disease is a common condition in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients and is the leading cause of fatal events during and after renal transplantation. The best strategy for CV evaluation and coronary risk stratification in renal transplant candidates remains controversial. Moreover, there is no consensus regarding the best strategy for d

3. Prognostic value of non-invasive functional tests during the follow-up of acute myocardial infarction treated with primary coronary stenting / Valor prognóstico de provas funcionais na evolução tardia de pacientes com infarto agudo do miocárdio tratados com angioplastia coronária transluminal percutânea primária com implante de stent
Primary coronary angioplasty and stenting during acute myocardial infarction is the first treatment choice. Non-invasive testings have been used in the diagnosis of restenosis but its efficacy and time to be performed have to be determined. The purpose of this study was to evaluate exercise treadmill test, myocardial perfusion imaging and rest two-dimensiona

4. "Definição de conduta na investigação de doença coronária obstrutiva utilizando teoria de conjuntos fuzzy aplicada a dados clínico-epidemiológicos, ergométricos e cintilográficos" / Establishment of diagnostic procedures for coronary artery disease based on fuzzy set theory applied to clinical epidemiological data and treadmill electrocardiography and myocardial perfusion scintigraphy results.
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a worldwide leading cause of death. Early detection is important to prevent such sort of outcome. The gold standard method for evaluating critical partial occlusions is coronary arteriography, a catheterization technique which is invasive, time consuming, and costly. There are noninvasive approaches for early detection of CAD

5. Temporal evolution of changes in left ventricular function induced by cold pressor stimulation. An assessment with radionuclide angiography and gold 195m.
The evolutionary changes in left ventricular function induced by cold pressor stimulation were investigated at 90 second intervals by rapid sequential first pass radionuclide angiography using the short half life tracer gold 195m. The results in 12 subjects with normal coronary arteries were compared with those in 12 patients with coronary artery disease. Le

6. Assessment of left ventricular performance and myocardial viability using quantitative radioisotope techniques.
The diagnostic value of a combined radionuclide technique was compared with conventional angiocardiographic techniques in 60 patients with coronary artery disease. Quantitative 201Tl myocardial imaging combined with radionuclide angiocardiography using 99mTc-HSA provided a safe and accurate method for the assessment of left ventricular performance. The defec

7. Phasic abnormalities of left ventricular emptying in coronary artery disease.
Seventy subjects with suspected coronary artery disease were studied by radionuclide angiocardiography. Delayed or paradoxically emptying regions of the left ventricle were detected by a relatively new nuclear technique--phase imaging. The results were assessed in the light of cardiac catheterisation findings. Compared with 19 normals, regions with abnormall

8. The ST segment of the ambulatory electrocardiogram in a normal population.
The behaviour of the ST segment in everyday life was studied by ambulatory electrocardiography in 111 normal volunteers. Fifteen were excluded because of abnormal exercise responses (10 subjects) and significant postural ST segment shifts (five subjects). This left 62 men and 34 women, mean (SD) age 40.5 (12.6) years (range 20-67 years). Ambulatory monitorin
