Investigating the capillary circulation of the foot with 99mTc-macroaggregated albumin: a prospective study in patients with diabetes and foot ulceration.
Macroaggregated albumin has been used to assess capillary circulation for over 20 years. The aim of the present study was to use 99mTc-macroaggregated albumin (99mTc-MAA) perfusion scanning to assess capillary circulation in feet with ischaemic ulcers in patients with diabetes, and relate the appearances to outcome. Twenty-three patients with diabetes presented with a total of 41 neuroischaemic foot ulcers. Perfusion scanning was performed by direct femoral artery injection of approximately 400,000 particles of 99mTc-MAA and imaging with a gamma camera. Patients were followed prospectively for 3 months. Scans were graded independently by a radiologist who was unaware of the site of the ulcers. Significant associations were detected between a radiologist's assessment of increased tissue perfusion and complete healing after 3 months (p = 0.047) and poor tissue perfusion on the image and failure to heal (p = 0.0005). This technique may be useful in deciding whether to persist with conservative treatment in patients with diabetes and foot ulceration.
