CURRENT POSSIBILITIES OF USING RADIOPHARMACEUTICALS TO EVALUATE CEREBRAL BLOOD FLOW

https://doi.org/10.20862/0042-4676-2017-98-1-44-49

Abstract

A comparison of the possibilities of using various neurotropic radiopharmaceuticals for scintigraphic evaluation of cerebral perfusion. In the whole range of radiopharmaceuticals used to diagnose cerebral blood flow disorders, there are Ceretec (99mTc-hexamethylpropyleneamine) and Neurolite (N,N-1,2-ethylenediylbis-L-cysteine-diethyl ether), which are the most optimal agents. Due to their high cost and related radiation exposure, the radiopharmaceuticals 123І-IMP (123I-isopropyl-iodoamphetamine) and 201Tl-DDC (diethyldithiocarbamate) labeled with thallium-201 virtually minimize the possibilities of being used in daily clinical practice. Fixation of 99mTc-DDC in the brain proves to be short-term, which is insufficient for tomoscintigraphy studies. Literature has been sought in the Scopus, Web of Scince, Pubmed, EMBASE, and Russian Science Citation Index databases.
