Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a preventable cause of morbidity and mortality which needs prompt recognition. Ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) scan is a well-established diagnostic test for evaluation of suspected PE. We report a 32-year-old woman with history of rheumatologic disease and acute dyspnea, who was referred for V/Q scintigraphy. The planar images revealed multiple mismatched defects through...
the features of hypertrophic pulmunary osteoarthropathy (hpoa) on radionuclide bone scintigraphy have been well described in case reports and small series of patients. the aim of this study was to investigate prospectively the prevalence and distribution of hpoa in a large series of patients with carcinoma of the lung. two hundred and eleven patients aged 31-89 years (average age 66 years) male...
99mTc-octreotide scintigraphy, performed during the following up a 58-year old man with neuroendocrine tumor demonstrated massive hepatomegaly demonstrating multiple areas of increased and decreased uptake. Due to severe hepatomegaly concurrence of any other abdominal soft tissue lesions could not be excluded. A 99mTc-sulfur colloid scan was done and thoroughly compared wi...
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...
introduction: in islamic countries in the month of holy ramadan many muslims based on their religious legislation refuse fluid intake during the fasting time though instructed to drink after injection of tc-99m methylene-diphosphonates [tc-99m mdp] used for skeletal scintigraphy. we aimed to establish whether fluid restriction in tc-99m mdp skeletal scintigraphy has an impact on its quality. me...
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...
BACKGROUND In patients being considered for lung-resection surgery, quantitative perfusion scintigraphy is used to predict postoperative lung function and guide the determination of lung-resection candidacy. Vibration-response imaging has been proposed as a noninvasive, radiation-free, and simpler method to predict postoperative lung function. We compared vibration-response imaging to quantita...
An enostosis or bone island is a benign bony lesion that is almost diagnosed based on clinical and radiologic defining characteristics. One of the known diagnostic procedures in the evaluation of enostosis is bone scintigraphy. Generally, we don’t expect to see increased uptake by enostosis in the bone scan. Herein we present a 52-year-old lady who was suffering from chronic low back pain that ...
Primary hyperparathyroidism is caused by a single parathyroid adenoma in the majority of patients. Localization of parathyroid adenomas prior to surgery has the benefit of allowing a minimally invasive approach. Over the years, multiple imaging modalities have been employed in an attempt to identify the site preoperatively, with varying degrees of success. In this study, we explore the accuracy...
UNLABELLED In this investigation, the efficacy of scintigraphy using (99m)Tc-labeled hydrazinonicotinyl-Tyr3-octreotide (HYNIC-TOC) in the evaluation of extraadrenal pheochromocytoma was assessed and compared with (131)I-labeled metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) imaging. METHODS Ninety-seven patients who were suspected of having pheochromocytoma but showed no definite adrenal abnormalities on CT...
