99mTc-MIBI imaging in thyroid nodules: is it useful?
Treglia et al. [1] have recently proposed a meta-analysis evaluating the diagnostic performance of 99mTc-MIBI scan in predicting the malignancy of thyroid nodules. 99m-Tc is registered and adopted worldwide for myocardial perfusion imaging and for the diagnostic work-up of hyperparathyroidism. Furthermore there are reports on the use of 99mTc-MIBI imaging in post-surgical evaluation of thyroid ...
متن کاملPercutaneous microwave ablation of thyroid nodules: efficacy evaluation with 99m Tc - pertechnetate and 99mTc-MIBI functional imaging
Background: Local ablative treatments play an important role for patients who cannot be treated surgically. Radiofrequency ablation is a well-established alternative to surgical treatment of thyroid nodules, however it also has disadvantages. Microwave ablation (MWA) is a new minimally invasive treatment promising several improvements. The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the eff...

متن کاملEvaluation of thyroid scan with 99mTc-MIBI in selected patients candidate for thyroid surgery [Persian]
Aim: Thyroid scan with sestamibi is used for evaluation of thyroid nodules with the aim of increasing specificity before surgery. In this study we evaluated the role of Sestamibi thyroid scan in candidates for thyroid surgery. Methods and patients: During two years, 37 patients were studied with solitary thyroid nodules, referred for thyroid surgery due to malignant or suspicious FNAB res...
