The prognostic value of 18-FDG positron emission tomography in T cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma
18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) scans are typically positive in patients with T cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (T-NHL) and can assist in the diagnosis and staging of this uncommon malignancy. Previous studies have suggested that FDG-PET is a useful tool in initial staging of T-NHL; however, there is relatively little evidence for the role of the post-treatment FDGPET in...
متن کاملVisualization of esophageal non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with Ga-67 scintigraphy.
Although non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the gastrointestinal tract is common, primary esophageal lymphomas represent less than 1% of all gastrointestinal tumors. We report a case of primary non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the esophagus. Ga-67 scintigraphy showed characteristic intense accumulation in the esophageal wall. The histopathology belonged to the category of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymp...
متن کاملAn overview on Ga-68 radiopharmaceuticals for positron emission tomography applications
Gallium-68 a positron emitter radionuclide, with great impact on the nuclear medicine, has been widely used in positron emission tomography (PET) diagnosis of various malignancies in humans during more recent years especially in neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). The vast number of 68Ge/68Ga related generator productions, targeting molecule design (proteins, antibody fragments,...
متن کاملSupraglottic primary B-cell lymphoma by fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography-computed tomography (18F-FDG-PET/CT)
1,2 An 82-year-old male presented with dysphagia to solids and liquids, weight loss, odynophagia and left cervical pain for two months. Fever or night sweats were not reported. An otorhinolaryngological examination revealed permeable nostrils, free cavum, erythema of the arytenoid mucosa, and a suspicion of a malignant lesion in the left arytenoepiglottic fold. No lymphadenopathy of significant...
متن کاملGa-67 scintigraphy in lymphoma patients undergoing bone marrow transplantation
It is aimed to evaluate Gallium-67 scintigraphy (GS) and CT for predicting clinical outcome in lymphoma patients who undergo autologous stem-cell transplantation (ASCT). Forty patients undergoing ASCT, had GS before and at 100 days post-transplantation (D-100). Patients were followed for 6-61 months and 15 had repeat GS at 200 days post-transplantation (D-200). All patients underwent computed t...
