Comparison of brain SPECT with 99mTc-MIBI and CT-scan in discriminating of radiation necrosis and brain tumor recurrence [Persian]
Introduction: 99mTc-MIBI has been proposed for use as an imaging agent for various tumors, including breast cancer, lung cancer, lymphomas, melanomas and brain neoplastic lesions. Brain tumors are very common and radiotherapy being major part of treatment following surgery. After radiotherapy, deteriorating clinical status can be due to either radiation necrosis or recurrent tumor. Comput...
متن کاملDifferentiation of Tumor Recurrence from radiation-induced Necrosis Using Diffusion Tensor Imaging
Introduction: Surgical resection and chemotherapy alone have proven to be insufficient in treatment of patients with primary and metastatic brain tumors. As a result, the various forms of radiotherapy, such as external-beam radiation, radiosurgery have become important therapeutic adjuncts. The appearance of a new enhancing lesion after radiation treatment may represent tumor recurrence, radiat...
متن کاملRadiation necrosis masquerading as late tumor recurrence: 14 years after combined fractionated stereotactic radiosurgery and conventional radiation therapy
Radiation necrosis is a known sequela of delivering high doses of ionizing radiation to the central nervous system and may be confused with tumor recurrence. Although stereotactic radiation has found increasing application in managing central nervous system malignancies, the imaging appearance of benign tissue several years after such treatment has not been frequently documented in the medical ...
متن کاملRapid Multi-Tracer PET Tumor Imaging With F-FDG and Secondary Shorter-Lived Tracers.
Rapid multi-tracer PET, where two to three PET tracers are rapidly scanned with staggered injections, can recover certain imaging measures for each tracer based on differences in tracer kinetics and decay. We previously showed that single-tracer imaging measures can be recovered to a certain extent from rapid dual-tracer (62)Cu - PTSM (blood flow) + (62)Cu - ATSM (hypoxia) tumor imaging. In thi...
متن کاملAmino Acid PET – An Imaging Option to Identify Treatment Response, Posttherapeutic Effects, and Tumor Recurrence?
Routine diagnostics and treatment monitoring in patients with primary and secondary brain tumors is usually based on contrast-enhanced standard MRI. However, the capacity of standard MRI to differentiate neoplastic tissue from non-specific posttreatment effects may be limited particularly after therapeutic interventions such as radio- and/or chemotherapy or newer treatment options, e.g., immune...
