Impact of mediastinal, liver and lung (123)I-metaiodobenzylguanidine ((123)I-MIBG) washout on calculated (123)I-MIBG myocardial washout

PURPOSE: In planar (123)I-metaiodobenzylguanidine ((123)I-MIBG) myocardial imaging mediastinum (M) activity is often used as a background correction in calculating “washout” (WO). However, the most likely sources for counts that might produce errors in estimating myocardial (Myo) activity are lung (...
