Role of (99m)tc-hexakis-2-methoxy-isobutylisonitrile in the diagnosis and staging of lung cancer.
BACKGROUND Preliminary studies have shown that (99m)Tc-hexakis-2-methoxyisobutylisonitrile (MIBI) is an interesting tracer for various tumors. The aim of this study was to determine the feasibility of using (99m)Tc-MIBI as a diagnostic and staging procedure for lung cancer. METHODS We prospectively compared the results of biopsy with (99m)Tc-MIBI imaging in patients with potentially resectabl...
متن کاملDiagnostic Performances of 99mTc-Methoxy Isobutyl Isonitrile Scan in Predicting the Malignancy of Lung Lesions
We performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the value of technetium-99m methoxy isobutyl isonitrile (Tc-MIBI) single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) in differentiating malignant from benign lung lesions.The PubMed and Embase databases were comprehensively searched for relevant articles that evaluated lung lesions suspicious for malignancy. Two reviewers independently extracted the data...
متن کاملSYNTHESIS OF 8-HYDROXY-6-METHOXY- 3-UNDECYLISOCOUMARIN AND 2-HY DROXY - 4-METHOXY-6-(2-OXOTRIDECYL) BENZOIC ACID
Straightforward conversion of (+)-6,8-dimethoxy-3,4-dihydro-3- undecylisocoumarin (3) to the title isocoumarin was carried out. Hydrolytic ring opening of (3) afforded the hydroxy acid (4) which was immediately oxidized to keto acid (5) using chromic acid, Cyclodehydration of (5) afforded the 6,8- dimethoxy-3-undecylisocoumarin (6) which on selective demethylation of 8- methoxy group furni...
متن کاملRelationship between the optimum cut off frequency for Butterworth filter and lung-heart ratio in 99mTc myocardial SPECT
Background: We investigated whether the lungheart ratio parameter (LHR) can be used to identify the optimum cut off frequency for Butterworth filter in 99mTc myocardial SPECT imaging. Materials and Methods: This study involved a cardiac phantom system consisting of cardiac insert in which 1.10 cm cold defect was inserted into its myocardium wall and filled with 4.0 μCi/ml (0.148 MBq/ml...
متن کامل99mTc-MIBI scintigraphy in musculoskeletal tumors [Persian]
The aim of this study was to assess the value of 99mTc-hexakis-2-methoxyisobutylisonitrile (MIBI) scintigraphy in patients with clinical and radiologic features of primary or metastatic musculoskeletal tumors. Methods: The scintigraphic findings for 84 patients were compared with the surgical and histologic findings. Each patient underwent three-phase bone scan with 99mTc-methylene diphos...
