Cardiac 123I-MIBG uptake in idiopathic ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation.

Abstract

Patients with idiopathic tachycardia and fibrillation show abnormal 1231-MIBG uptake, which indicates presynaptic sympathetic dysfunction. RVO-VT and IVF patients exhibit significantly reduced 123I-MIBG uptake in the posterior left ventricular wall, whereas ILVT patients do not.
