    Abstract Nuclear cardiology including single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and positron emission tomography (PET) can play important roles as myocardial viability assessment and perioperative cardiovascular evaluation for noncardiac surgery. Increasing prevalance of coronary artery disease (CAD) is associated with an increasing number of patients with heart failure secondary to CAD. Three main therapies, medical, revascularizations, and heart transplantation, are currently available. Appropriate revascularization can improve left ventricular function, and hence could also improve an outcome. However, patients with reduced left ventricle (LV) function have higher perioperative cardiac risks. Therefore, it is important to evaluate the extent of myocardial viability to assist in deciding patient managements. In nuclear imaging, thallium-201 (201T1) SPECT, technetium-99m (99mTc) sestamibi SPECT, and 18F fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) are applied for viability assessment. FDG is a glucose analogue and is used to measure myocardial glucose utilization. Among noninvasive imaging, FDG-PET is considered to be a standard measurement. Perioperative cardiovascular complications significantly deteriorate the outcome not only of the postoperative period but also over the subsequent 1 to 2 years. Intrathoracic noncardiac surgeries themselves are at intermediate or high perioperative risk. Thus, careful preoperative cardiac risk assessment is necessary for predicting cardiac complications. In the present review, we overview the present status of viability assessment and perioperative cardiovascular evaluation, and discuss some new approaches.

    Abstract Nuclear cardiology imaging tests are widely performed in Japan as clinical practice. The Japanese nuclear cardiology community has developed new diagnostic imaging tests using (123)I-beta-methyl-p-iodophenyl-pentadecanoic acid, (123)I-metaiodobenzylguanidine, and (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose PET for detecting cardiac involvement in sarcoidosis. These tests have become popular worldwide. The Japanese Circulation Society and the Japanese Society of Nuclear Cardiology have published clinical imaging guidelines showing indications and standards for the new imaging tests. JSNC is currently striving to improve the standard of clinical practice and is promoting research activities.

    Abstract With the increasing availability of positron emission tomography (PET) myocardial perfusion imaging, the absolute quantification of myocardial blood flow (MBF) has become popular in clinical settings. Quantitative MBF provides an important additional diagnostic or prognostic information over conventional visual assessment. The success of MBF quantification using PET/computed tomography (CT) has increased the demand for this quantitative diagnostic approach to be more accessible. In this regard, MBF quantification approaches have been developed using several other diagnostic imaging modalities including single-photon emission computed tomography, CT, and cardiac magnetic resonance. This review will address the clinical aspects of PET MBF quantification and the new approaches to MBF quantification.

    Abstract Introduction: Three-dimensional (3D) data acquisition is now standard on PET/computed tomography scanners. The aim of this study was to evaluate the repeatability of myocardial blood flow (MBF) estimation with rubidium-82 (Rb) 3D PET and to validate regional MBF measurements by comparison with two-dimensional (2D) PET.
    Patients and methods: Fifteen healthy individuals (31.6 ± 11.4 years old) were enrolled for the evaluation of the short-term repeatability of rest 3D MBF quantification. Another 19 healthy individuals (35.3 ± 12.6 years old) underwent rest and pharmacological stress PET using 2D and 3D data acquisition within a 1-month interval. The injected dose was 1500 MBq for 2D and 555 MBq for 3D PET acquisition.
    Results: MBF at rest showed good repeatability [whole left ventricular MBF; 0.54 ± 0.13 vs. 0.52 ± 0.13 mL/min/g, P = 0.98]. Rest MBF, stress MBF, and myocardial flow reserve (MFR) were not significantly different between 3D and 2D data acquisition. 3D MBF correlated well with 2D MBF over a wide flow range for both whole left ventricular (r = 0.97, P < 0.0001) and regional values (r = 0.61, P < 0.0001).
    Conclusion: MBF measured with 3D PET showed very good test-retest repeatability. Whole left ventricular and regional MBF measurements obtained using lower Rb-dose 3D PET were highly correlated over a wide range with those from 2D PET. Therefore, MBF with 3D PET can be applied using a lower Rb dosage in clinical settings with reduced radiation exposure.
