Technetium-99m-tetrofosmin imaging of lung cancer: relationship with histopathology.
Tc-99m-tetrofosmin is an agent to delineate cancer. To elucidate the usefulness of Tc-99m-tetrofosmin scintigraphy, we analyzed the relationship between the uptake of Tc-99m-tetrofosmin and histopathology in patients with lung cancer. SPECT studies were conducted twice: 15 minutes (early scan), and 60 minutes (delayed scan), after intravenous injection of 740 MBq Tc-99m-tetrofosmin. We calculat...
متن کاملRapid miniaturized chromatography for technetium-99m-tetrofosmin.
UNLABELLED The purpose of this investigation was to develop and evaluate a new and rapid miniaturized chromatography system that would accurately assess the radiochemical purity of 99mTc-tetrofosmin without the problems of solvent ratios and time requirements associated with the manufacturer's recommended procedure. METHODS The migration of the radiochemical components of 99mTc-tetrofosmin wa...
متن کاملQuantitative rest technetium-99m tetrofosmin imaging in predicting functional recovery after revascularization: comparison with rest-redistribution thallium-201.
OBJECTIVES This study was undertaken to 1) compare the regional myocardial tracer distributions between rest technetium (Tc)-99m tetrofosmin and rest-redistribution thallium (Tl)-201 images in patients with coronary artery disease and left ventricular dysfunction; and 2) assess the comparative values of these agents for predicting functional recovery after revascularization. BACKGROUND Tc-99m...
متن کاملLong-term prognostic value of exercise technetium-99m tetrofosmin myocardial perfusion single-photon emission computed tomography
BACKGROUND Exercise (99m)Tc-tetrofosmin single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is a useful tool for short- and medium-term risk stratifications. Currently, the long-term prognostic application of this technique has not been evaluated. METHODS AND RESULTS Exercise (99m)Tc-tetrofosmin was performed in 655 consecutive patients. Ten patients who underwent revascularization <60 days af...
متن کاملImaging of Primitive Neuroectodermal Tumor (PNET) by Technetium-99m Tetrofosmin
Purpose. Tc-99m tetrofosmin launched for myocardial studies has recently also shown a good detectability for several tumors. Data on PNET imaging by Tc-99m tetrofosmin are not yet available.Patient and method. In the case of a 21-year-old man suffering from pelvis PNET, Tc-99m tetrofosmin scintigraphy was performed additionally to CT and MRI.Results. The gluteal and iliac tumor masses were visu...
