WO 00/57787 PCT/USOO/07891 Method for Localization of Blood Clots FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a medical diagnostic method and, in particular, to an in vivo diagnostic method for detecting a blood clot, such as a pulmonary embolism or a thrombus, employing a radiopharmaceutical contrast agent and volume rendering of single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) images. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Pulmonary embolism is a condition of the lung that emerges when a portion of a blood clot (i.e., thrombus) growing pathologically within a patient breaks off (i.e., embolizes) and travels to the lung. In many instances, the condition itself is immediately life-threatening. However, 5 even when the condition is not immediately life-threatening, a patient presenting with symptoms characteristic of pulmonary embolism must be properly diagnosed to assure that the symptoms do not represent other diseases. Accordingly, detection and localization of pulmonary embolism are critical 0 to insure that the patient receives the appropriate care. Previously, a technique for diagnosing tumors has been developed. The technique involves.localizing a contrast agent at the tumor and obtaining a series of image slices of the tumor using single photon emission computed tomography 5 (SPECT). The image slices are then individually inspected by a physician. As a result, the process is time consuming and expensive. To improve the ability to diagnose tumors using SPECT, a volume rendering technique has been developed for displaying 0 SPECT data derived from a complete set of image slices through the tumor. According to this technique, a three-dimensional matrix of data is assembled from the image slices. The three dimensional matrix of data is then scanned along an array of parallel lines at a given angle with respect to the tumor. -1- WO 00/57787 PCT/USOO/07891 For each parallel line, the value of the most intense pixel along the parallel line is determined and assigned to a pixel in a two-dimensional array whose position corresponds to the position of the corresponding parallel line in the array of parallel lines. The process is repeated for a series of angles over 360 to produce a series of two-dimensional images. When the series of two-dimensional images are displayed sequentially, a rotating view of the most intense pixels is produced. In spite of the foregoing, the utility of SPECT as a tool for diagnosing pulmonary embolism remained limited. The limited use of SPECT in connection with pulmonary embolism is due, at least in part, to the fact that the normal anatomy of the thorax is complex. As a result, structures highlighted by 5 the contrast agent are variable, often in a pattern that is unfamiliar to physicians, and without the normal identifying landmarks. Thus, the location of the thrombus and the extent of disease was expected to be difficult to ascertain from the SPECT images, even if volume rendering techniques were 0 employed. Accordingly, it would be highly beneficial to provide a method for identification and localization of pulmonary embolism using SPECT wherein a three-dimensional representation of a thrombus is obtained. The three 5 dimensional representation of the thrombus should enable a physician to more clearly, accurately, and efficiently determine the extent of disease. Accordingly, the present invention should provide a significant qualitative improvement in the ability of a naive physician to identify and localize a 30 thrombus. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The shortcomings associated with the known methods for localization of blood clots are overcome to a large degree by 35 a method in accordance with the present invention. The method according to the present invention comprises the step of localizing a radiolabelled compound at a thrombus by -2- WO 00/57787 PCT/USOO/07891 administering a radiopharmaceutical compound to the patient. Two-dimensional images representing a physical property associated with the radiolabelled thrombus, such as single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) images, are then acquired and assembled into a three-dimensional matrix of data. The three-dimensional matrix of data is then scanned along an array of parallel lines to determine a maximum value along each line. The maximum value along each line is then assigned to a pixel in a two-dimensional array, where the relative position of the pixel in the two-dimensional array corresponds to the relative position of the line in the array of parallel lines. The three-dimensional matrix of data is optionally scanned along additional arrays of parallel lines to produce a series of images of the thrombus as viewed from different angles. The series of images can be displayed sequentially to produce a rotating view of the thrombus. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS The foregoing summary, as well as the following detailed 0 description of the preferred embodiments of the present invention, will be better understood when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawing, in which: Fig. 1 is a flow chart depicting the steps of a method for imaging a thrombus in accordance with the present 5 invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention relates to a method for imaging a thrombus, the steps of which are depicted in Fig. 1. At step 30 10, the patient is administered a radiolabelled compound that preferentially binds to the thrombus. For example, the radiolabelled compound may be administered by injecting approximately 20 mCi (740 Mbq) of the radiolabelled compound into the venous circulation system of the patient. In one 35 embodiment, the radiolabelled compound comprises a radiopharmaceutical of the type described in U.S. Patent No. 5,744,120 issued April 28, 1998 to Edwards et al., U.S. Patent -3- WO 00/57787 PCT/USOO/07891 No. 5,879,657 issued March 9, 1999 to DeGrado et al., U.S. Patent No. 5,879,659 issued March 9, 1999 to Edwards et al., and U.S. Patent No. 5,750,088 issued May 12, 1998 to Sworin et al., all of which are incorporated herein by reference.

The radiopharmaceutical compound used in accordance with the present invention is radiolabelled. By "radiolabelled", it is meant that the compound contains a radioisotope which is 5 suitable for administration to a mammalian patient. Suitable radioisotopes are known to those skilled in the art and include, for example, isotopes of halogens (such as chlorine, -21- WO 00/57787 PCT/USOO/07891 fluorine, bromine and iodine), technetium and indium. Preferable radioisotopes include 1231, 1251, 1311, 99 mTc, and 111In, more preferably 111 In, 1231 and 99 mTc, and most preferably 99 mTc. Radiolabelled compounds of the invention may be prepared using standard radiolabelling procedures well known to those skilled in the art. The glycoprotein IIb/IIIa binding compound, Q, is radiolabelled indirectly (that is, by incorporating the radiolabel into the compound through the chelating agent Ch'). Such radiolabelling should also be ) reasonably stable, both chemically and metabolically, applying recognized standards in the art. Also, although the radiolabelled compound may be labeled in a variety of fashions with a variety of different radioisotopes, as those skilled in the art will recognize, such radiolabelling should be carried out in a manner such that the high binding affinity and specificity of the unlabeled glycoprotein IIb/IIIa binding compound to the glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor is not significantly affected. By not significantly affected, it is meant that the binding affinity and specificity is not ) affected more than about 50%, preferably not more than about 40%, more preferably not more than about 30%, even more preferably not more than about 20%, and still even more preferably not more than about 10%, and most preferably the binding affinity and specificity is not affected at all. 5 Referring again to formula (I) , MT is a transition metal radionuclide which is attached to the biologically active compound Q via the chelator Ch. Preferred radiolabelled compounds of the invention are radiolabelled compounds wherein the radiolabel is located on the carbocyclic ring system of 0 R 31 of formula (II). Even more preferred radiolabelled compounds of the invention are those of formula (III), wherein the radiolabel is located at position R 10 or R10a substituted on the benzene ring. The coordination sphere of the radionuclide includes all 5 the ligands or groups bound to the radionuclide. For a transition metal radionuclide, Mt, to be stable it typically has a coordination number comprised of an integer greater than -22- WO 00/57787 PCT/USOO/07891 or equal to 5 and less than or equal to 7; that is there are 5 to 7 atoms bound to the metal and it is said to have a complete coordination sphere. If the chelator or bonding unit Ch' does not provide all of the atoms necessary to stabilize the metal radionuclide by completing its coordination sphere, the coordination sphere is completed by donor atoms from other ligands, termed ancillary or co-ligands, which can be either terminal or chelating. A large number of ligands can serve as ancillary or co-ligands, the choice of which is determined by a variety of considerations such as the ease of synthesis of the radiopharmaceutical, the chemical and physical properties of the ancillary ligand, the rate of formation, the yield, the number of isomeric forms of the resulting radiopharmaceuticals, the ability to administer said ancillary or co-ligand to a patient without adverse physiological consequences to said patient, and the compatibility of the ligand in a lyophilized kit formulation. The charge and lipophilicity of the ancillary ligand will effect the charge and lipophilicity of the radiopharmaceuticals. For example, the use of 4,5-dihydroxy-1,3-benzene disulfonate results in radiopharmaceuticals with an additional two anionic groups because the sulfonate groups will be anionic under physiological conditions. The use of N-alkyl substituted 5 3,4-hydroxypyridinones results in radiopharmaceuticals with varying degrees of lipophilicity depending on the size of the alkyl substituents. The radiopharmaceuticals prepared from the reagents of the present invention can be comprised of one or two ancillary 3 or co-ligands, designated AL1, in a binary ligand system. The one or two ancillary or co-ligands, AL1, comprising the radiopharmaceuticals can be independently selected from the group consisting of: dioxygen ligands, functionalized aminocarboxylates and halides; provided that the coordination 5 sphere of the radionuclide is complete. Ancillary dioxygen ligands include ligands that coordinate to the metal ion through at least two oxygen donor -23- WO 00/57787 PCT/USOO/07891 atoms. Examples include but are not limited to: glucoheptonate, gluconate, 2-hydroxyisobutyrate, lactate, tartrate, mannitol, glucarate, maltol, Kojic acid, 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)propionic acid, 4,5-dihydroxy-1,3-benzene disulfonate, or substituted or unsubstituted 1,2 or 3,4 hydroxypyridinones, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. Functionalized aminocarboxylates include ligands that have a combination of nitrogen and oxygen donor atoms. Examples include but are not limited to: iminodiacetic acid, 2,3 diaminopropionic acid, nitrilotriacetic acid, N,N'-ethylenediamine diacetic acid, N,N,N'-ethylenediamine triacetic acid, hydroxyethylethylenediamine triacetic acid, N,N'-ethylenediamine bis-hydroxyphenylglycine, or the ligands described in Eur. Pat. Appl. No. 93302712.0, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. Halides which are suitable for use as the ancillary ligand AL, can be chloride, bromide, fluoride, iodide, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. Of particular utility are radiopharmaceuticals prepared from the reagents of the present invention comprised of two different types of ancillary or co-ligands, one or two ligands designated the first ancillary or co-ligand or ligands, ALl, and independently selected from the group: dioxygen ligands, functionalized aminocarboxylates and halides; and one to four ligands designated the second ancillary or co-ligand or ligands, AL2, selected from the group: trisubstituted phosphines, trisubstituted arsines, tetrasubstituted diphosphines and tetrasubstituted diarsines, in a ternary ) ligand system. Radiopharmaceuticals comprised of one or more ancillary or co-ligands AL2 are more stable compared to said radiopharmaceuticals that are not comprised of one or more ancillary ligands, AL2; that is, they have a minimal number of isomeric forms, the relative ratios of which do not change 5 significantly with time, and remain substantially intact upon dilution.

The image slices reflect the concentration of radioactivity within the thrombus. Each image slice is composed of a two-dimensional array of pixels, wherein each pixel comprises an intensity value representative of the concentration of radioactivity at the particular position within the thrombus which corresponds to the pixel. In one embodiment, the image slices are obtained using a gamma camera to record single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) images. When the method of the present invention is used to detect an arterial thrombus, for example, data should be acquired using parameters that enhance the sensitivity of the technique for small lesions. In particular, when SPECT images are acquired, the parameters should include a 3 mm or smaller digital sampling (i.e., pixel size), and a minimum of 90 views over a 360 degree rotation or 45 views over a 180 degree rotation. Further, very high-resolution collimators and multiple heads should be used to increase the resolution and sensitivity, respectively. In addition, the acquired data should be reconstructed using a spatial filter with a relatively high frequency cutoff (i.e., approximately 3.00 or higher) to minimize resolution loss due to smoothing. A minimum of thirty angles ensures a visually smooth effect when the views are intended to be displayed sequentially to produce a rotating view of the thrombus, as described below. At step 14, the image slices are reconstructed and assembled into a three-dimensional matrix of data. The D three-dimensional matrix of data is assembled by stacking the individual image slices in sequential order. When the image slices are collected perpendicularly to the long axis of the patient, the three-dimensional matrix of data is organized as a series of transaxial image slices. 5 Once the three-dimensional matrix of data has been assembled, the matrix of data is scanned along an array of parallel lines (usually perpendicular to the vertical axis of -26- WO 00/57787 PCT/USOO/07891 the body), at step 16, to determine the maximum intensity value along each of the parallel lines. The maximum intensity value along a parallel line is equivalent to the most intense pixel within the matrix of data encountered along that parallel line. The most intense pixel is defined as the pixel corresponding to the position within the lesion where the radioactivity is most intense. At step 18,. the maximum value along each parallel line is assigned to a pixel in a two-dimensional image array. The relative position of the pixel in the two-dimensional image array corresponds to the relative position of the line in the array of parallel lines. The resulting two-dimensional image array therefore represents an image of the most intense pixels as viewed by an observer viewing the thrombus along the array of parallel lines. The three-dimensional matrix of data can be scanned along additional arrays of parallel lines in order to produce image arrays of the thrombus from different angles. At step 20, it is determined whether the three-dimensional matrix of data is D to be scanned at a different angle. If the matrix of data is to be scanned at a different angle, the matrix of data is scanned along the new angle at step 16. Preferably, the lesion is scanned along a minimum of 90 views over a series of angles over 3600 or a minimum of 45 views over a series of 5 angles over 1800. If additional views of the thrombus are not desired, the results are displayed at step 22. The results can be displayed as individual views of the thrombus by displaying one or more of the individual two-dimensional image arrays. 0 Alternatively, when two-dimensional image arrays at more than one angle have been obtained, the individual two-dimensional image arrays can be displayed sequentially by angle to produce a rotating view of the most intense pixels. Although the above discussion has focused primarily on 5 localization of pulmonary embolism, the present invention is not intended to be so limited. Instead, the present invention is intended to relate to any medical condition capable of -27- WO 00/57787 PCT/USOO/07891 diagnosis using a clot-binding radiopharmaceutical contrast agent and SPECT.
