introduction: the purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of prednisolone on the sensitivity of bone scanning to detect the simulated closed fracture in the rat tibia. methods: a total number of forty eight adult, male nmri rats randomly assigned into two parts, one part for 4 and other for 8 weeks experiments. each part has been divided into four groups, one group not receivi...
Bone scintigraphy with 99mTc diphosphonates may exhibit extraosseous lesions in addition to metastatic lesions. Multiple factors can affect extraosseous 99mTc methylene diphosphonate (MDP) uptake. Similar uptake pattern of 99mTc MDP and fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18F FDG) in hepatic metastasis was not already notified. In our case, initial tumor necrosis and subsequent intracellular calcif...
PURPOSE 99mTechnetium methylene diphosphonate (99mTc MDP) bone scintigraphy is currently the method of choice for the detection of bone metastases, but 18F-fluoro-deoxy-D-glucose positron emission tomography (18FDG PET) offers superior spatial resolution and improved sensitivity. We have compared 18FDG PET with 99mTc MDP bone scintigraphy in patients with skeletal metastases from breast cancer ...
Bone scintigraphy is a sensitive and popular method for imaging a wide array of benign or malignant skeletal abnormalities. However, the uptake of tracers used for bone scintigraphy may be observed in various extraosseous sites, thereby limiting its specificity. It is difficult to correctly localize such sites of uptake on planar bone scintigraphy alone. The addition of hybrid single-photon emi...
OBJECTIVES We investigated the diagnostic accuracy of 99mTc-3,3-diphosphono-1,2-propanodicarboxylic acid (99mTc-DPD) scintigraphy for differentiation of monoclonal immunoglobulin light-chain (AL) and transthyretin (TTR)-related cardiac amyloidosis. BACKGROUND Differential diagnosis between TTR-related and AL amyloidosis is often complex and time-consuming. METHODS Patients under routine obs...
a 10-year-old boy was referred to us for evaluation of fuo accompanied with bone pain in both calves. three hours after intravenous injection of 13 mci of 99mtc-mdp, whole body scan in multiple spot views was performed. the scan showed symmetrical areas of diffusely increased tracer uptake in multiple long bones. histopathologic evaluation confirmed osteosclrosis and fibrotic changes without an...
OBJECTIVES To validate 99mTc-labeled arginylglycylaspartic acid (99mTc-3PRGD2) scintigraphy as a means to image synovial neoangiogenesis in joints afflicted by rheumatoid arthritis and to investigate its potential in the early detection and management of rheumatoid arthritis. METHODS Rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis were generated in Sprague Dawley rats by type II collagen immunization...
Diffuse pulmonary deposition of [99mTc]methylene diphosphonate (MDP) as well as abnormalities characteristic of hypertrophic pulmonary osteoarthropathy have been observed in a patient with Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP). The findings of the bone scan together with those in the corresponding scintigraphy, and roentgenograms of the chest and skeletal structures are presented. Parallel rever...
a 65 year-old overweight man with a history of prostate cancer was referred to our nuclear medicine department for bone scanning. anterior projection images showed two small foci of increased radiotracer uptake corresponding to the anterior arcs of the right and left sixth ribs, which were interpreted as suspicious for metastatic involvement. eight months later the patient was referred for foll...
