PURPOSE: This study aims to investigate whether induction with metamizol, an analgesic-antipyretic drug having spasmolitic activity, could be used to increase the detectability of ischemic/jeopardized myocardium during MPS (myocardial perfusion scintigraphy).
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Metamizol-enhanced rest MPS (45 min after administration of 1 g metamizol orally, 740 MBq (99m)Tc sestamibi was injected, MPS was acquired 45 min later) was performed in 21 patients who had perfusion defects on their previous stress-rest (99m)Tc sestamibi MPS. Blood pressure was monitored at 15-min intervals. Stress, rest, metamizol-rest MPS images were interpreted on the model of 20 segments using a visual uptake score (VUS; 0 = normal, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = significant decreases, 4 = no uptake). (99m)Tc sestamibi uptake ratios (MIBI-UR; mean counts in the region of the perfusion defect/mean counts in the region of the normal-perfused wall) were obtained on each MPS and compared with each other. Average MIBI-UR in each scintigraphic examination was calculated. MPS were compared with coronary angiography results.
RESULTS: VUS and MIBI-UR results showed that metamizol-rest MPS displayed the defect reversibility better than rest MPS. Of the 14 segments with fixed perfusion defects on stress-rest MPS, 8 showed improvement of perfusion after metamizol induction. In 33 segments, lesion reversibility was better delineated on metamizol-rest MPS. Metamizol-induced sestamibi uptake was significantly higher (p < 0.001) than stress/baseline rest examinations as calculated by the MIBI-UR. Blood pressure remained unaltered. Coronary angiography results were in concordance with metamizol induced MPS.
CONCLUSIONS: Metamizol-enhanced rest MPS increases detectability of ischemic/viable myocardium during MPS. Metamizol should be discontinued like nitrates before stress MPS since it may mask the visualization of ischemic perfusion defects.
