Assessment of Left Ventricular Dyssynchrony using Gated Myocardial Perfusion SPECT in Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy

Author(s):

Manabu Nakamura, Masahisa Onoguchi and Takayuki Shibutani

In cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), even if patient selection is made according to Japanese adaptive criteria, there are non-responders. Its main factor is considered to be the lack of adequate preoperative assessment against mechanical left ventricular dyssynchrony. Recently, phase analysis was enabled on gated myocardial perfusion SPECT (GMPS). The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between the index of phase analysis using the two software (cardioREPO® and QGS) and the left ventricular reverse remodeling index (ΔLVESV) for the evaluation of left ventricular dyssynchrony in CRT patients is there. It also evaluated whether it could be an index of adaptation decision and effect determination.
