[Radionuclide ventriculography. III. Clinical results--parameters of regional wall motility (author's transl)].
Radionuclide ventriculography and cineangiography were performed in 62 patients with suspected coronary artery disease. Regional wall motility irregularities could be demonstrated in 97% of those patients who revealed an irregularity in the cineangiogram. Two small scars of the posterior myocardial wall escaped detection. The sensitivity of the radionuclide ventriculography was 97%, the specificity was 80%, 4 patients with normal cineangiography showed small irregularities in the radionuclide ventriculogram. 70 patients with infarction revealed wall motility irregularities in 90%, whereas perfusion defects could be detected by thallium scintigraphy in 66% (young and old infarctions).
