Abstract

Single-photon emission CT of the heart was used to observe coronary blood flow and reveal the maximum perfusion region in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) treated with beta-adrenoblockers and calcium channel blockers. Dynamic observation showed changes and redistribution of myocardial perfusion. Specific features of coronary blood flow were demonstrated depending on the therapeutic modality (beta-blocker metoprolol, calcium channel blocker amlodipine). Parameters of prognostic value were identified depending on the effectiveness of the agents used. This approach together with the traditional nosological one to the choice of CHD therapy permits to individualize the therapeutic influence depending on myocardial micriocirculatory features, such as the spread and depth of perfusion disturbances.
