ABSTRACT
Left ventricular mass (LV mass) is an independent prognostic indicator of cardiovascular complications, and its regression due to therapy translates to positive clinical outcomes. Good correlation of LV mass between qualitative ECG-gated SPECT (OGS) and echocardiography has been reported, and this study aims to verify if such relationship applies in the local setting. Forty-five consecutive patients with normal myocardial perfusion SPECT and recent plain echocardiograms done in the same institution were retrospectively analyzed. Results show a significant correlation (y = 0.296x + 75.962, r = 0.491, p = 0.001) between the LV mass of the two imaging modalities, which was also observed in the TI-201  group (y= 0.256x + 80.325, r_=_0.442, p = 0.006), but not in the Tc-99m sestamibi group (y= 0.402x + 63.456, r_=_0.443, p = 0.272). The mean LV mass by OGS (122.0 ± 26.9) is significantly smaller compared with the mean LV mass by echo cardiography (155.5 ± 44.6), and the difference between the two procedures (mean ± SD 39.7 ± 32.6, p
