Dipyridamole-thallium imaging: minimum dose requirements.
1991
: A total of 372 consecutive dipyridamole-thallium studies were reviewed to determine if a relationship existed between the dose of dipyridamole administered and the likelihood that thallium images would show reversible defects. Men who received a dose of less than 31 mg were less likely to have thallium redistribution (P = 0.0001). Until the ideal study involving repeat testing with incremental dipyridamole doses on different days is carried out, the authors recommend that a minimal dose of 31 mg be administered for dipyridamole-thallium imaging.
