Vascular time-activity variation in patients undergoing (123)I-MIBG myocardial scintigraphy: implications for quantification of cardiac and mediastinal uptake

PURPOSE: For the quantification of cardiac (123)I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) uptake, the mediastinum is commonly used as a reference region reflecting nonspecific background activity. However, variations in the quantity of vascular structures in the mediastinum and the rate of renal clearance of...
