Tc-99m HMPAO brain SPECT in linear nevus sebaceous syndrome.
The authors present a case of linear nevus sebaceous syndrome (LNSS) with atrophy of bilateral frontotemporal areas of the brain, left cerebellum and hippocampus, and bilateral uncal dysplasia demonstrated by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Magnetic resonance angiography revealed bilateral internal carotid artery hypoplasia with absence of flow in the anterior and middle cerebral arteries. Tc...
متن کاملStatistical parametric mapping demonstrates asymmetric uptake with Tc-99m ECD and Tc-99m HMPAO SPECT in normal brain.
Tc-99m ethyl cysteinate diethylester (ECD) and Tc-99m hexamethyl propylene amine oxime (HMPAO) are commonly used for single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) studies of a variety of neurologic disorders. Although these tracers have been very helpful in diagnosing and guiding treatment of neurologic disease, data describing the distribution and laterality of these tracers in normal res...
متن کاملTc-99m-HMPAO uptake by bronchoalveolar cells.
Lung uptake of intravenously injected Tc-99m-HMPAO is observed in smokers and in lung toxicity due to various agents. We investigated the Tc-99m-HMPAO uptake of bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) cells in the lungs after incubation in in vitro conditions (6 patients), intravenous injection (IV) (7 patients) and inhalation (INH) (6 patients) of Tc-99m-HMPAO in order to show whether BAL cells are also ...
متن کاملImprovement of Cerebral Hypoperfusion with Levothyroxine Therapy in Hashimoto's Encephalopathy Demonstrated by (99m)Tc-HMPAO-SPECT.
BACKGROUND Hashimoto's encephalopathy (HE) is a rare immune-mediated encephalopathy associated with autoimmune Hashimoto's thyroiditis. OBJECTIVES AND METHODS We report on a patient with HE and significant clinical improvement correlating with an increase in cerebral blood flow demonstrated by hexamethylpropyleneamine oxime (HMPAO) single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). HMPAO-SPE...
متن کاملImprovement in Tc-99m HMPAO brain SPECT findings during donepezil therapy in a patient with pure akinesia.
A 58-year-old man presented with a history of disturbance in initiating gait. His history revealed meningoencephalitis five years prior to admission. Neurological examination included gait disturbance as difficulty in initiation and a hesitating speech with many freezing episodes and micrographia Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed diffuse hyperintensity of frontal subcortical white matter ...
