  • 冠心病治疗方法的进展对诊断提出了更高的要求, 核素显像是冠心病诊断的重要手段。核素显像方法种类很多, 各种方法检测的重点、意义均不相同[1]。在同一个患者中, 实施所有的核素检查项目是不可能的, 也是不必要的。如何将核素显像方案进行优化, 选择最具临床价值、最符合临床要求、最具有可行性的核素检测项目或组合项目, 需要进一步深入研究。自1991年10月至2009年6月, 我们选择临床可疑或确诊的冠心病患者4236例, 进行99Tcm标记化合物显像8873例次, 分析显像结果, 并与临床对照, 以期探讨99Tcm标记化合物显像检测冠心病的优化方案。

1.   资料与方法

    1.1.   病例资料

  • 选择临床可疑或确诊的冠心病患者4236例, 其中男性3205例、女性1031例, 年龄26~91岁, 平均年龄(56.5±18.9)岁。此组病例由冠状动脉造影或临床随访证实。

  • 1.2.   主要仪器和显像剂

  • 显像仪器为GE公司生产的带符合线路和定位CT的SPECT-CT, 机型为Hawkeye Millennium VG, 配低能平行孔、99Tcm/18F双核素和符合线路准直器, 具备心电图触发门控采集功能。显像剂包括放射性核素和标记化合物, 分别由北京原子高科股份有限公司、江苏省原子医学研究所江原制药厂和山东省肿瘤医院提供。99Tcm-甲氧基异丁基异腈(99Tcm-methoxyisobutylisonitrile, 99Tcm-MIBI)每次显像剂量为555~740 MBq(1 mCi=37 MBq); 99Tcm-红细胞(99Tcm-red blood cell, 99Tcm-RBC)、99Tcm-高锝酸盐(99Tcm-sodium pertechnetate, 99TcmO4-)、99Tcm-焦磷酸盐(99Tcm-pyrophosphate, 99Tcm-PYP)每次显像的剂量均为740 MBq; 18F-FDG每次显像剂量为185~296 MBq; 201Tl每次显像剂量为111 MBq。

  • 1.3.   核素显像常用项目

  • 99Tcm-MIBI静息心肌灌注断层显像[1-2]; ②99Tcm-MIBI负荷(运动或药物)心肌灌注断层显像[3-4]; ③99Tcm-MIBI门控心肌断层显像[5-7]; ④99Tcm-RBC门控心血池显像[8-9]; ⑤静脉滴注(或含服)硝酸甘油介入99Tcm-MIBI心肌显像[10-11]; ⑥99TcmO4-首次通过法心血管造影[1]; ⑦99Tcm-PYP梗死灶阳性显像[1]; ⑧18F-FDG心肌葡萄糖代谢显像[12]; ⑨18F-FDG与99Tcm-MIBI双核素心肌显像[13-14]; ⑩201Tl心肌显像[15-16]

    合计 4236 3449/3397 675/839 94.1 3985/4236
  • 2.2.   冠心病临床特需诊断要求完成情况

    2.2.1.   存活心肌检测
  • 210例冠脉造影确诊的冠心病患者用方案五组合显像, 与经皮冠状动脉介入治疗(percutaneous-coronary intervention, PCI)后的疗效比较, 证实该方案首选项目检测存活心肌的准确率为86.2%(181/210)。

  • 2.2.2.   “罪犯”血管检测
  • 146例冠脉造影确诊的冠心病多支血管病变患者用方案六组合显像, 与PCI后的疗效对比, 显示该方案首选项目检测“罪犯”血管的准确率为95.9%(140/146)。

  • 2.2.3.   缺血性心肌病诊断
  • 352例冠心病并缺血性心肌病患者用方案七组合显像, 结果显示, 该方案首选项目在本病中有明显的影像特点, 对比临床诊断结果, 该方案诊断缺血性心肌病的准确率为92.3%。

  • 2.2.4.   疗效评价
  • 74例接受血流重建治疗的患者用方案八组合显像进行疗效评价, 结果显示, 74例患者经临床评价: 治愈5例, 好转63例, 无效6例, 有效率为91.9%(68/74);方案八首选项目评价: 显效7例, 有效62例, 无效5例, 有效率为93.2%(69/74), 与临床评价接近。

3.   讨论
  • 本研究选择4236例临床确诊或可疑的冠心病患者进行了99Tcm标记化合物显像, 通过显像结果分析, 尝试提出了99Tcm标记化合物显像检测冠心病的优化方案。其应用结果显示, 在可疑冠心病的诊断中, 采用静息加运动99Tcm-MIBI心肌显像, 即可确诊或排除冠心病的存在, 准确率达91.7%。针对此类病例的诊断, 本方案强调运动试验的重要性, 运动显像可明显提高检出率和准确性。对于心肌缺血、陈旧性心肌梗死的检测和急性心肌梗死的诊断, 通过静息99Tcm-MIBI心肌显像单一项目, 既可了解心肌缺血的部位、范围和程度, 又可直观有无心脏扩大和心室重构, 其检测准确性高, 克服了核素显像检查步骤繁琐的缺陷。对临床特需的检测要求, 如存活心肌检测、“罪犯”血管检测、缺血性心肌病诊断、疗效监测等, 采用本方案所列的首选项目检测, 也有较高的准确性。本组病例检测方案的首选项目均为组合项目, 弥补了单一项目信息量不足的缺陷。

    本组病例结果表明,本优化方案在冠心病检测 中准确、可行,符合高效原则。采用本方案的首选 项目,简化了检测程序,减少了检测项目,缩短了 检测时间,方便了临床应用,提高了工作效率,符 合简便原则。本优化方案的首选项目均为99Tcm标记化合物显像项目,其显像剂供应充分、价格相对 低廉、检测费用便宜,降低了运行成本,减轻了患 者负担,符合节约原则,利于将核素显像这一优势 项目在临床冠心病诊断中推广应用。

    此优化方案立足于99Tcm标记化合物显像, 与201Tl相比, 核素更易得, 费用更低廉, 图像质量更好。在心肌存活的检测中, 虽然99Tcm标记化合物显像的准确率略低于18F-FDG代谢显像, 但却明显降低了检测条件和成本, 其性价比更高。应用的检测仪器也以普通SPECT或能够进行正电子成像的SPECT-CT为主, 较PET或PET-CT的检测成本与条件更低, 也利于临床的普及应用。未来随着核心脏病学的发展, 新的更优越的核素显像剂、显像仪器和显像方法不断应用, 本方案也会随之改进, 以进一步达到对冠心病全面诊断的要求。
