Relationship between collateral circulation and myocardial viability of 18F-FDG PET/CT subtended by chronic total occluded coronary arteries

Abstract: In patients with CTO, collateral circulation does not seem to be an effective way for predicting myocardial viability. Further analysis of PET patterns of viable myocardium is needed to guide further revascularization and predict functional improvement and survival benefit.

“…us, it could be used as a clinical detection index for CHD, which was basically consistent with the research findings of [14]. In the assessment of the patient's future coronary artery health, it is feasible to use high EATV as a risk factor, and it can increase the clinical predictive value of another detection index-calcification score for CHD [15]. In recent years, bio-friendly imaging technologies such as CT have played an increasingly critical role in the clinical detection of cardiovascular diseases through the quantitative measurement of EATV [16].…”

“…This may be due to the presence of collateral circulation was a sensitive (89%) but not a speci c (31%) sign of myocardial viability. [22] Our study has some limitations. First, it was an observational study with small patient sample.…”

“…Thus, collaterals on angiography do not seem to be an effective way to predict the viability of the myocardium. 30 Due to the limited number of patients with an assessment of myocardial viability having collateral circulation, a meaningful analysis was not possible in our study. Instead, we compared myocardial viability with the site (proximal and non-proximal) of occlusion and found a numerically higher amount of viable myocardium with the proximal site of occlusion (mean of 25.8±11%) as compared to non-proximal occlusion (mean of 12.0±2.0%); however, it did not reach statistical significance (p-value=0.060).…”
