METHOD FOR DIAGNOSING LOWER EXTREMITY MUSCLE ISCHEMIA IN THE CASES OF THEIR CHRONIC ARTERIAL INSUFFICIENCY

摘要

FIELD: medicine. ^ SUBSTANCE: method involves introducing radioactive preparation of 99mTc-metoxyisobutylisonitryl or 99mTc-tetrophosmine. Parameters reflecting arterial blood circulation intensity are analyzed. Standard physical activity is applied not earlier as at the second day. Radiopharmaceutical preparation is immediately introduced at the same dose. Extremity muscle ischemia diagnosis is set on the basis of increased blood circulation intensity after having applied exercise stress. ^ EFFECT: high reliability of diagnosis. ^ 2 tbl
