From the begining of IMP SPECT studies, temporal changes in the distribution of IMP within the brain was noted as the Redistribution phenomenon, however the mechanisms and clinical significance of this phenomenon remains uncertain. In this report, we discussed and reviewed about the mechanisms of this phenomenon, the correlation between this phenomenon and the tissue viability, and the factors enhanced to this phenomenon. At the presence, the clinical significances of the delayed image in cerebral ischemia could be estimated as follows: (1) In acute cerebral ischemia, the severity of cerebral ischemia could be indicated by the early and delayed images. The moderate hypoperfusion on the early image with an incomplete redistribution on the delayed image was assessed as a critical perfusion in the affected area. (2) The tissue injury in the hyperperfusion area on the early image followed by reopening of occluded vessels could be estimated by serial changes of the redistribution on the delayed image. Almost complete redistribution was constantly maintained in the hyperperfusion area without severe tissue injury. (3) In patients with occlusive cerebrovascular disease, hemodynamic reserve using IMP SPECT with Diamox-activation could be assessed by the early and delayed images. The moderate hypoperfusion on the early image with an incomplete redistribution on the delayed image under Diamox-activated condition was assessed as a moderate limitation of cerebral vasodilatory capacity in the affected area. Thus, SPECT imaging for cerebral perfusion must appear to offer a more widely available alternative to positron emission tomography (PET) in management of cerebrovascular disease.}, pages = {46--59}, title = {123I-IMPの再分布現象と虚血脳におけるDelayed imageの臨床的意義について}, volume = {2}, year = {1989} }
