BACKGROUND: Bone scintigraphy plays an important role in the diagnosis of cardiac Transthyretin-Related Amyloidosis (ATTR). The mechanism of myocardial tracer accumulation and its dependence over time are not fully understood. Recently, a scintigraphic quantification of the cardiac amyloid deposition has been discussed. Nevertheless, little is known regarding the right time of quantitative imaging.
METHODS: The geometrical mean of decay corrected total counts over the heart and the heart/whole-body ratio (H/WB) were evaluated in 23 patients undergoing DPD-bone scan with planar whole-body images 1 and 3 hours post injection (p.i.). Myocardial standard uptake values (SUV)peak were assessed in another 15 patients with quantitative SPECT/CT imaging 1 hours and 3 hours p.i..
RESULTS: Total counts over the heart (1 hours p.i.: 81,676 cts, range 69,887 to 93,091 cts and 3 hours p.i.: 64,819 cts, range 52,048 to 86,123 cts, P = .0005) and H/WB ratio (1 hours p.i.:0.076 ± 0.020 and 3 hours p.i. 0.070 ± 0.022; P = .0003) were significantly increased 1 hours p.i.. Furthermore median myocardial SUVpeak (1 hours p.i.:12.2, range 9.6 to 18.9 and 3 hours p.i.: 9.6, range 8.2 to 15.0, P = 0.0012) was also significantly higher after 1 hours p.i. compared to 3 hours p.i..
CONCLUSION: Cardiac DPD activity and myocardial SUVpeak are time-dependent, which should be considered when using quantitative bone scintigraphy in ATTR patients.
