Radioiodine therapy effects on salivary gland function in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer [Persian]
Salivary gland involvement is one of the radioiodine therapy complications. Salivary gland scintigraphy in quantitative mode can accurately evaluate salivary gland function. Methods: Salivary gland scintigraphy was performed with Tc-99m Pertechnetate, at the time of iodine therapy as a basic study and then 3 weeks and 3 months afterwards. Ejection Fraction (EF) of parotid and submandibula...

متن کاملSalivary Gland Scintigraphy in Patients with Sjogren’s Syndrome: A local Experience with Dual-tracer
Objective(s): To review the findings of the patients with Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) having technetium-99m-pertechnetate (99mTc-pertechnetate) and gallium-67 citrate (Ga-67) salivary gland scintigraphy in the past eight years.Methods: The patients with SS, who were referred to our department for salivary gland scintigraphy during January 2008-December 2015 were studied using both 99mTc-pertechneta...
متن کاملQuantitative salivary gland scintigraphy.
OBJECTIVE Uptake of 99mTc-pertechnetate in salivary glands reflects intact salivary gland parenchyma. However, no standardized protocol for an accurate quantification of parenchymal function has been established so far. METHODS In this paper we report on a validated acquisition protocol supplying a normal database for standardized quantitative salivary gland scintigraphy. RESULTS The major ...
متن کاملAre We Missing Salivary-Gland Dysfunction Years After a Single 131I Treatment for Thyroid Cancer?
Results Papillary thyroid cancer was present in 96% of the mainly female patients. In the majority of patients, the results for all four salivary glands were available. After 5 years, 35 patients (16%) reported a dry mouth. Symptoms of a dry mouth were more frequent with higher RAI doses (5.55 GBq, 18%; 3.7 GBq, 7.8%). The SGS before RAI was normal in 88% of 852 salivary glands. In the remainin...
