متن کاملGallium-67 scintigraphy in polymyalgia rheumatica.
A patient with atypical presentation of polymyalgia rheumatica is presented. Her major symptoms were mild weakness, pain on passive movement of the shoulder and hip girdles, with mild tenderness but no joint stiffness. Muscle enzymes were within the normal range. The diagnostic work-up included gallium-67 scintigraphy, which showed intense uptake in both shoulders, with remarkable improvement f...
متن کاملGallium-67 scintigraphy in macrophagic myofasciitis.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate gallium-67 (67Ga) uptake and the value of 67Ga scintigraphy for diagnosis of macrophagic myofasciitis (MMF), a recently identified inflammatory myopathy. METHODS Twelve consecutive patients with MMF confirmed by muscle biopsy, 10 with polymyositis, 10 with sarcoidosis, 8 with fibromyalgia, and 10 with lymphoma without muscle symptoms (serving as normal controls for muscl...
متن کاملGallium-67 scintigraphy in lung diseases.
There is some disagreement in the literature about the tumour affinity and tumour specificity of gallium-67 (6VGa). The present investigation showed good uptake of 67Ga in most cases of bronchial carcinoma, but some uptake of 67Ga was also found in 30% of those with non-malignant lung lesions. There was no relationship between the uptake of 17Ga and the histo-logical type of bronchial carcinoma...
متن کاملTuberculosis peritonitis: gallium-67 scintigraphic appearance.
Tuberculosis peritonitis is a rare manifestation of extrapulmonary tuberculosis. The results of gallium-67 scintigraphy of three patients with tuberculosis peritonitis were reviewed to assess its usefulness in the diagnosis of this condition. Tuberculosis peritonitis was associated with diffuse or focal abdominal localization and decreased hepatic accumulation of gallium-67. These gallium-67 sc...
