Description

Objective: To investigate the detection of brain hypoxic tissue in patients with ischemic cerebrovascular of brain using 99mTc-4,9-diaza-3,3,10,10-tetramethyldodecan-2,11 -dione dioxime (99mTc-HL91) maging. Methods: Nine controls and 17 patients with acute infarction of brain underwent 99mTc-HL91 imaging. Results: The ratios of left/right in controls is 0.98 ± 0.04. The ratios of L/N in patients is 1.54 ± 0.55. Conclusion: 99mTc-HL91 imaging could detect brain hypoxic tissue after ischemic cerebrovascular of brain. (authors)
