Journal ArticleDOI
Prognostic Role of Myocardial Blood Flow Impairment in Idiopathic Left Ventricular Dysfunction
Danilo Neglia,Claudio Michelassi,Maria G. Trivieri,Gianmario Sambuceti,Assuero Giorgetti,Lorenza Pratali,Michela Gallopin,Piero A. Salvadori,Oreste Sorace,Clara Carpeggiani,Rosa Poddighe,Antonio L'Abbate,Oberdan Parodi +12 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that severely depressed MBF is a predictor of poor prognosis in patients with idiopathic LV dysfunction independently of the degree of LV functional impairment and of the presence of overt heart failure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Myocardial Blood Flow Response to Pacing Tachycardia and to Dipyridamole Infusion in Patients With Dilated Cardiomyopathy Without Overt Heart Failure A Quantitative Assessment by Positron Emission Tomography
Danilo Neglia,Oberdan Parodi,Michela Gallopin,Gianmario Sambuceti,Assuero Giorgetti,Lorenza Pratali,Piero Salvadori,Claudio Michelassi,Maurizio Lunardi,Gualtiero Pelosi,Mario Marzilli,Antonio L'Abbate +11 more
TL;DR: In patients with DCM without overt heart failure, the abnormalities in vasodilating capability can be present despite normal hemodynamics; progression of the disease is associated with more depressed myocardial perfusion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Homogeneously Reduced Versus Regionally Impaired Myocardial Blood Flow in Hypertensive Patients: Two Different Patterns of Myocardial Perfusion Associated With Degree of Hypertrophy
Alessia Gimelli,Jan Schneider-Eicke,Danilo Neglia,Gianmario Sambuceti,Assuero Giorgetti,G. Bigalli,Guido Parodi,Roberto Pedrinelli,Oberdan Parodi +8 more
TL;DR: In arterial hypertension, left ventricular mass is not correlated with global myocardial blood flow, and patients with ventricular hypertrophy are likely to show a heterogeneous flow pattern with regional defects and almost normal blood flow in nonaffected regions.
Journal ArticleDOI
High diagnostic accuracy of low-dose gated-SPECT with solid-state ultrafast detectors: preliminary clinical results
Alessia Gimelli,Matteo Bottai,Matteo Bottai,Dario Genovesi,Assuero Giorgetti,Fabio Di Martino,Paolo Marzullo +6 more
TL;DR: This pilot study demonstrated the feasibility of a low-dose single-day stress–rest fasting protocol performed using UF SPECT, with good sensitivity and specificity in detecting CAD at low patient exposure, opening new perspectives in the use of myocardial perfusion in ischaemic patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of 2-[18F]-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) in the early assessment of response to chemotherapy in metastatic breast cancer patients.
Alessandra Gennari,S. Donati,Barbara Salvadori,Assuero Giorgetti,Piero A. Salvadori,Oreste Sorace,Giacomo Puccini,Patrizia Pisani,Michela Poli,Daniele Dani,E. Landucci,Giuliano Mariani,Pierfranco Conte +12 more
TL;DR: Semiquantitative FDG-PET scanning of metastatic breast cancer sites showed a rapid and significant decrease in tumor glucose metabolism soon after the first course of treatment in patients who achieved a response to first-line chemotherapy, while no significant decrease was observed in nonresponding patients.
