Abstract

We often experienced non-segmented peripheral patchy decrease (NSPPD) in ^99mTc-MAA pulmonary perfusion scan using SPECT/CT. Seventy cases were evaluated by ^99mTc-MAA SPECT/CT. NSPPD was seen in 22 cases (31.4%), of which 17 were assessed for pulmonary hypertension. Pulmonary hypertension was diagnosed in 11 cases, which consisted of 3 chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension, 2 idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension, 2 systemic lupus eryhthematosus and 4 left ventricular heart disease. We suggest that NSPPD may indicate the early stage of PH.
