result of prolonged and severe myocardial ischemia which is often Page 1 CONCLUSION
Decreased BMIPP uptake relative to thallium perfusion was often seen at rest in patients with …

Autonomic dysfunction is associated with increased mortality in diabetic patients. To
evaluate the cardiac autonomic dysfunction in these patients, a prospective study was …

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between autonomic nerve
dysfunction and myocardial uptake of l23 I-meta-iodobenzyl guanidine (MIBG) in patients …

BACKGROUND: 123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) myocardial scintigraphy is a useful
tool for diagnosing cardiac autonomic neuropathy (CAN) in non–insulin-dependent diabetes …

OBJECTIVES.: This study in patients with diabetes mellitus was undertaken 1) to evaluate
cardiac sympathetic innervation in diabetic patients using metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) …

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the use of the noradrenaline analogue iodine-
123 metaiodobenzylguanidine ([123 I] MIBG) for the assessment of cardiac sympathetic …

Objectives: In diabetes, extended adrenergic receptor stimulation with hyperglycemia and
insulin deficiency is associated with cardiac autonomic dysfunction. Clinically evident …

OBJECTIVE Global myocardial uptake of 123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) has been
shown to be decreased in diabetic patients with autonomic neuropathy, indicating cardiac …

Radio-labeled metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) is considered an established sympa-thetic
neuron imaging agent capable of scintigraphically visualizing the organs richly innervated …

Purpose To investigate the influence of diabetic myocardial damage (suspected myocardial
damage; SMD) diagnosed by 201 T1-SPECT and diabetic cardiac autonomic neuropathy …
