When the average values were analyzed using a 17-segment model, myocardial counts in the septal segment differed signifi cantly between 180° and 360° rotation acquisitions. Regional differences were observed between men and women in the inferior and anterior regions. A tracer difference between 99m Tc and 201 Tl was also observed in some segments. The attenuation patterns differed signifi cantly between subjects from the United States and those from Japan. Conclusions Myocardial perfusion data that were specifi c for the Japanese population were generated. The normal database can serve a standard for nuclear cardiology work conducted in Japan.

In this study, we attempted to develop a more simplified method for estimation of Ca10 and to validate its usefulness for quantification of rCBF in a number of patients with different cerebrovascular diseases.Methods: Consecutive 134 patients were examined for 123I-IMP ARG study. Dynamic images of the lungs for 5 min and brain SPECT images for 30 min (6×5 min) and Ca 10 values were acquired from the first 35 patients. Using the data of the 35 patients, the regression equation for estimating Ca10 was calculated by the multiple regression analysis. The regression equation was applied to the other 99 patients who comprised 29 patients with Parkinson’s disease, 32 with common or internal carotid artery occlusion or stenosis, 14 with moyamoya disease, 12 with cerebral infarction, and 12 with other diseases. The mean of rCBFs in various regions of the brain (mCBF) calculated using the estimated Ca10 was compared with that calculated using directly measured Ca10 in the 99 patients. Results: The regression equation obtained was as follows: Estimated Ca10 =1070.1 +2.17 ×10-3a-8.08 ∙ b - 2.23 ×c +2.47 ×10-3d, where a: the area under the time-activity curve of the lungs (UCL), b: body weight, c: sum of UCL and the counts of brain projection data from 10 to 15 min after injection (CB1), d: those from 35 to 45 min (CB6), respectively. The estimated Ca10 closely correlated with the directly measured Ca10 (r=077). The mCBF values calculated using the estimated Ca10 closely correlated with those calculated using the directly measured Ca10 in all the patient groups (r=0.80, 0.78, 0.62, 0.77, 0.85 and 0.79 in patients with Parkinson’s disease, common or internal carotid artery occlusion or stenosis, moyamoya disease, cerebral infarction, and the other diseases, and total 99 patients, respectively). Conclusion: This study verified that the newly developed noninvasive method, which is more simplified than the previous method, can estimate reliably the Ca10 values which are available for quantification of rCBF in different patient groups.

An MH actuator is very suitable for the force display because it works smoothly without any noise. In addition, the actuator is compact, light weight, and

First, the identification characteristics of the tactile sensing concerned with the quality of materials were investigated when human fingertips touched the surface of various materials in a vertical direction. In addition to obtaining the tactile characteristics, the

The purpose of this project was to create standard files approved by the Japanese Society of Nuclear Medicine and to make known the characteristics of the myocardial perfusion pattern of this population. Methods: With the collaboration of nine hospitals, a total of 326 sets of exercise-rest myocardial perfusion images were accumulated from subjects with a low-likelihood of cardiac diseases. The normal database included a 99m Tc-MIBI/tetrofosmin myocardial perfusion study with 360-degree (n=80) and 180-degree (n=56) rotations, 201 Tl study with 360-degree (n=115) and 180-degree rotations (n=54) and a dual-isotope study with 360-degree rotation (n=27). The projection images were transferred by DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) format and reconstructed and analyzed with polar maps. Results: The projection data from multiple centers were successfully transferred to a common format for SPECT reconstruction. When the average values were analyzed using a 17-segment model, myocardial counts in the septal segment differed significantly between 180-degree and 360-degree rotation acquisitions. Regional differences were observed between males and females in the inferior and anterior regions. A tracer difference between 99m Tc and 201 Tl was also observed in some segments. The attenuation patterns differed significantly between subjects from the United States and Japanese populations. Conclusion: Myocardial perfusion data that were specific for the Japanese population were generated. The normal database can serve a standard for nuclear cardiology work conducted in Japan.
