We present a case of a patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease whose myocardial perfusion SPECT imaging demonstrated diffusely decreased Tc-99m sestamibi lung uptake ("lucent lungs"); our results indicate that there may be a lower limit of normal for lung-to-heart ratio, below which pathology can be inferred.
Targeted endoscopic parathyroidectomy without gas insufflation is a relatively non-invasive means of discovering and resecting parathyroid adenomas in sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism. This standardized technique depends on the quality of the preoperative imaging: cervical ultrasound and sestamibi scintigraphy, and can be optimized by preoperative insertion of an ultrasound-guided "harpoon"...
We report a case of 66-year-old female, who presented with features hypercalcemia and developed acute kidney injury (AKI). Parathyroid hormone level was raised up to 740 pg/ml. Ultrasound sestamibi scan suggested presence right sided parathyroid adenoma. A decision parathyroidectomy taken. The sample that sent for frozen section showed only thyroid tissue. No macroscopically visible or palpable...
BACKGROUND Increased 99mTc-sestamibi stress lung-to-heart ratio (sLHR) has been shown to predict cardiac outcomes similar to pulmonary uptake of thallium. Peak heart rate and use of pharmacologic stress affect the interpretation of lung thallium uptake. The current study was performed to determine whether 99mTc-sestamibi sLHR measurements are affected by stress-related variables, and whether th...
BACKGROUND Quantitative measures of myocardial perfusion defect severity from acute (99m)Tc-sestamibi tomographic images (nadir) have correlated closely with collateral and residual antegrade blood flow during acute myocardial infarction. The purpose of this study was to determine whether a viability threshold could be identified from this measure in patients with acute myocardial infarction tr...
BACKGROUND Gated single photon emission CT (SPECT) sestamibi imaging allows the simultaneous assessment of myocardial perfusion and left ventricular function. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate a technique for quantitative regional wall motion assessment using gated SPECT (99m)Tc-sestamibi imaging. PATIENTS AND INTERVENTIONS Fourteen subjects without cardiac pathology and 2...
UNLABELLED (99m)Tc-sestamibi is commonly used for mammoscintigraphy. Occasional uptake of (99m)Tc-exametazime in various tumors has been described. In this study, an intraindividual comparison of these 2 radiopharmaceuticals for mammoscintigraphy was made. METHODS A kinetic study (30 min) in the lateral prone view of 20 breast tumors (> or =1 cm) in 20 women was conducted with (99m)Tc-exameta...
OBJECTIVES To analyze the predictive values of selective venous sampling (SVS) in our own experience and in a systematic meta-analysis of the international literature and to compare them with the results of noninvasive localization studies before reoperative parathyroid surgery. DATA SOURCES Twenty-one consecutive patients with persistent or recurrent renal hyperparathyroidism underwent preop...
UNLABELLED Sustained myocardial ischemia with angina pectoris, electrocardiographic changes and subsequent non-Q-wave infarctions has been reported during percutaneous transluminal rotational atherectomy of complex coronary lesions. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of rotational atherectomy on regional myocardial perfusion as assessed by serial 99mTc-sestamibi SPECT imaging ...
OBJECTIVE Our study evaluated the accuracy and reliability of 3 radiochemical purity (RCP) measurement methods of 99mTc-sestamibi. A regular-sized (1.0 cm x 9.0 cm) Whatman 31 ET Chr paper strip (regular 31 ET) also was included in our evaluation because of its ease in handling. METHODS The miniaturized and regular 31 ET methods were compared with the standard RCP testing method (aluminum oxi...
