Abstract
Technetium-99m-methoxy isobutyl isonitrile (99mTc-MIBI) myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) is a functional imaging method with relatively poor specificity but high sensitivity. Wepresent 48-year-old man with cardiac involvement due to muscular dystrophies (MD). Myocardial perfusion imaging rest images revealed regional myocardial perfusion decrease in multiple walls, enlarged heart and decreased left ventricular systolic function. The lesion location of MPI was consistent with that seen on CMR. Our case showed MPI was useful for detection and evaluation of the MD patient with cardiac involvement. In addition, imaging findings in combination with clinical history and other data are important. The case highlight is thevalue of MPI in myocardiopathy.
