Bone Scintigraphy in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Leukemia is the most common childhood cancer and accounts for 30-40% of all malignancies. A retrospective review was performed of the hospital records of 9 children, 6 boys and 3 girls, aged from 2.5 to 15 years with ALL initially referred to Nemazee hospital Nuclear medicine center for whole body bone scanning between 2000 and 2002.

متن کاملIntravenous PEG-asparaginase during remission induction in children and adolescents with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Over the past several decades, L-asparaginase, an important component of therapy for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), has typically been administered intramuscularly rather than intravenously in North America because of concerns regarding anaphylaxis. We evaluated the feasibility of giving polyethylene glycosylated (PEG)-asparaginase, the polyethylene glycol conjugate of Escherichia coli L-a...
متن کاملBrain MRI Findings in Children with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Background: Patients with leukemia are facing more complications in order to achieve longer survival. We aimed to evaluate the frequency of central nervous system abnormalities (CNS) on MRI of children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Methods: Sixty-six children with diagnosis of ALL aged 2-18 years were recruited. Non-contrast sequences of brain MRI in addition to diffusion weighted i...
متن کاملBone Mineral Density, Lean Body Mass and Bone Biomarkers Following Physical Exercise in Children with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Undergoing Chemotherapy
Background: This study was aimed to evaluate the effects of physical exercise on bone mineral density (BMD), lean body mass (LBM) and bone biomarkers in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia on chemotherapy. Methods: forty-six leukemic children were randomly assigned to two groups; exercise group (E) undergoing supervised mixed exercise program consisting of aerobic, resistance and flexib...
