Prescintigraphic morphine application for abdominal adenocarcinoma imaging, with technetium-99m methoxy isobutyl isonitrile.
Imaging of tumors with cationic tracers, especially with technetium-99 methoxy isobutyl isonitrile ((99m)Tc-MIBI), revealed high specificity for the diagnosis and follow up of various malignancies. However, these radiopharmaceuticals are of limited value for the diagnosis of malignancies of the abdominal region due to the immediate biliary secretion of the tracer and the associated high backgro...
متن کاملNUCLEAR PHARMACY Rapid Quality Control of Technetium-99m-2-Methoxy Isobutyl Isonitrile (Technetium-99m-Sestamibi)
Objective: Technetium-99m-sestamibi (-1"'Tc-MIBI) is a radiopharmaceutical imaging agent useful for assessing myocardial perfusion. We present a simple, rapid and accurate SepPak® method to confirm the radiochemical purity of "'Tc-MIBI. Methods: Technetium-99m-MIBI preparations of high (>95%), intermediate (83-90%) and low (25-43%) radiochemical purity were evaluated by the recommended thinlaye...
متن کاملThe role of Tc-99m-2-Methoxy-Isobutyl-Isonitrile Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography in visualizing anterior mediastinal tumor and differentiating histologic type of thymoma.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the usefulness of (99m)Tc-2-Methoxy-Isobutyl-Isonitrile Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (MIBI-SPECT) for assessing anterior mediastinal mass, and distinguishing the grade of malignancy of thymic epithelial tumors to offer guidance for decision making. METHODS From January 2006 to November 2009, 31 consecutive patients with an anterior mediastinal mass at CT we...
متن کاملMyocardial kinetics of technetium-99m-hexakis-2-methoxy-2-methylpropyl-isonitrile.
To study the potential usefulness of technetium-99m hexakis-2-methoxy-2-methylpropyl-isonitrile (Tc-MIBI) as a cardiac perfusion imaging agent, the left circumflex coronary arteries of 12 dogs were partially occluded. Eight additional control dogs had no coronary artery stenosis. Myocardial Tc-MIBI activities in the left circumflex and left anterior descending zones were continuously monitored ...
