UNLABELLED We compared functional imaging modalities including PET with 6-(18)F-fluorodopamine ((18)F-DA) with (123)I-metaiodobenzylguanidine ((123)I-MIBG) and somatostatin receptor scintigraphy (SRS) with (111)In-pentetreotide in nonmetastatic and metastatic pheochromocytoma (PHEO). METHODS We studied 25 men and 28 women (mean age +/- SD, 44.2 +/- 14.2 y) with biochemically proven nonmetasta...
Thallium-201 scintigraphy was performed in 8 children with neuroblastoma, and uptake by the tumors was evaluated in comparison with the results of 123I-MIBG scintigraphy. No primary tumors or metastatic lymph nodes showed 201Tl accumulation, but in 4 cases of bone marrow metastases accompanied by focal cortical invasion, the metastatic lesion was demonstrated more clearly on the early image tha...
Background—Current breath tests for measurement of gastric emptying of solids are expensive, possibly inaccurate, and require cumbersome calculations. Aims—We wished to validate a simplified solid gastric emptying test using a [C]Spirulina platensis breath test for accurate results relative to scintigraphy. Subjects—Thirty healthy volunteers. Methods—We measured gastric emptying of egg containi...
We aimed to evaluate the diagnostic and preoperative localization capacity of 99mTc methoxyisobutylnitrile (MIBI) parathyroid scintigraphy and ultrasonography (USG) in enlarged parathyroid glands in the primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) as well as the relationship between the success rate of these techniques and biochemical values. In this study, we retrospectively evaluated 39 patients with c...
The usefulness of bone marrow scintigraphy with 99mTc-HMPAO-labeled leukocytes (leukocyte bone marrow scintigraphy) in the diagnosis of skeletal metastases of cancers was investigated in 70 lesions in 27 patients with various types of cancer. The final diagnosis of skeletal metastases was based on one or more criteria consisting of histological confirmation, typical findings of metastases by bo...
Post-treatment or diagnostic whole-body radioiodine scintigraphy is widely used to assess the residual, recurrence, or metastases of differentiated thyroid carcinoma because of the high sensitivity and accuracy that this assessment provides. While bearing in mind all the diagnostic potential of this test, we have to consider its’ potential pitfalls, as well. Herein, we present 4 patients with d...
BACKGROUND Acute lower gastrointestinal bleeding (LGIB) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Multidetector row computed tomography (CT) with gastrointestinal (GI) bleed protocol is a novel diagnostic technique for detecting and localizing LGIB. Being rapid and noninvasive, it may be useful as a first-line modality to investigate cases of acute LGIB. GOALS To assess and compare diagnos...
PURPOSE To compare the accuracies of computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, and bone scintigraphy in staging disease in patients with neuroblastoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ninety-six children with newly diagnosed neuroblastoma were enrolled in a multicenter prospective cohort study. CT, MR, and bone scintigraphy were used to evaluate tumor stage. Sensitivity and specificity...
UNLABELLED Parathyroid scintigraphy and high-resolution ultrasonography are frequently used as preoperative localization procedures in primary hyperparathyroidism. However, when thyroid disease coexists, their diagnostic accuracy is probably abated. DESIGN 56 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism were prospectively evaluated with parathyroid scintigraphy (with either thallium or technetiu...
One hundred and forty two patients (62 with definite Sjögren's syndrome, 24 with probable Sjögren's syndrome, and 56 in whom Sjögren's syndrome was finally ruled out) were studied. Schirmer's test and rose bengal staining for the diagnosis of keratoconjunctivitis sicca and salivary scintigraphy and a labial biopsy sample for the diagnosis of xerostomaia were studied in all patients. Rose bengal...
