Massive hepatomegaly in 99mTc-octreotide scintigraphy: The value of 99mTc-sulfur colloid scan
99mTc-octreotide scintigraphy, performed during the following up a 58-year old man with neuroendocrine tumor demonstrated massive hepatomegaly demonstrating multiple areas of increased and decreased uptake. Due to severe hepatomegaly concurrence of any other abdominal soft tissue lesions could not be excluded. A 99mTc-sulfur colloid scan was done and thoroughly compared wi...
متن کاملDetection of intracranial bleeding by 99mTc sulfur colloid scintigraphy.
In her article in the May/June 1984 issue of AJNR, Dr. LeMay [1] provides a comprehensive review of the computed tomographic (CT), pneumoencephalographic , and radiographic changes of the brain and skull as seen in the aging population. She concludes that further understanding of the involutionary changes in the brain may require other, more sensitive methods of investigation than are now avail...
متن کاملDouble-tracer scintigraphy with 67Ga-citrate and 99mTc-sulfur colloid in the diagnosis of hepatic tumors.
A method of liver scanning based on a subtraction technique with simultaneous use of two tracers, 67Ga-citrate and 99mTc-sulfur colloid, is described. The subtraction technique isolates radiogallium uptake by the space-occupying hepatic lesions by subtracting interference due to tracer uptake by healthy hepatic tissue. In 82 patients, the method yielded a correct result in 94.7% of the positive...
متن کاملDiffrential Diagnosis of Hepatic Hydrothorax by 99mTc Sulfur Colloid Peritoneal Scintigraphy: Two Cases
Large symptomatic pleural effusions can be seen in cirrhotic patients with ascites. In this report, two cirrhotic patients with ascites and large pleural effusions were evaluated. To determine the cause of pleural effusion and to understand whether there was a communication of fluid between peritoneal and pleural cavities, 99mTc sulfur colloid peritoneal scintigraphy was used. According to the ...
متن کاملExtramedullary Pulmonary Hematopoiesis Causing Pulmonary Hypertension and Severe Tricuspid Regurgitation Detected by Technetium-99m Sulfur Colloid Bone Marrow Scan and Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography/CT
Extramedullary pulmonary hematopoiesis is a rare entity with a limited number of case reports in the available literature only. We report the case of a 66-year-old man with known primary myelofibrosis, in whom a Technetium-99m sulfur colloid bone marrow scan with single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/CT revealed a pulmonary hematopoiesis as the cause of pulmonary hypertension and s...
