Autonomic Innervation and MIBG Imaging

NCT02071680 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: PHASE3 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 5

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Patients with symptomatic atrial fibrillation (AF), a rapid beating of the upper heart chambers, can undergo catheter ablation to control or eliminate their rhythm disorder. The radiopharmceutical 123I-mIBG (Adreview™ GE Healthcare) has been introduced to visually identify cardiac innervation. This study will use non-invasive evaluation using MIBG imaging to study if we can predict baseline autonomic characteristics in patients with AF, as well as clinical outcome based on post ablation imaging

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Iodine-123 Meta-iodobenzylguanidine

A single injection of the 123I-mIBG will be given. Imaging will be done twice following injection: at 0120 minutes and 3-5 hours. The timing is dependent on the specific participant and imaging characteristics. The imaging is done for approximately 24 minutes at each time point.
