In this study we used technetium-99m-labeled lipophilic complex of methoxy-isobutyl-isonitrile (99mTc-MIBI) and iopromide to assess coronary atherosclerosis in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). The study included 33 patients with CAD who underwent myocardial perfusion scintigraphy with 99mTc-MIBI and computed tomography angiography (MDCTA) with iopromide. Patients who have comparable with the population-wide level risk of coronary events are characterized by the presence of borderline and significant stenosis 83% and 86%, respectively. 99mTc-MIBI and iopromide can be used to assess the severity of coronary atherosclerosis in patients with CAD.

Three radiopharmaceuticals are in routine clinical use in myocardial perfusion scintigraphy: thallium-201 (201Tl) as thallous chloride, technetium-99m (99mTc) sestamibi, and 99mTc tetrofosmin. This chapter covers physiological, imaging, and practical considerations of these radiopharmaceuticals, with detail on the properties and protocols of each explored in detail. Other perfusion tracers not in current clinical use are also listed.
