Mediastinal neurilemmoma demonstrated by positive Tc-99m(V) DMSA SPECT and negative Ga-67 uptake.
Schwannoma is a benign neurogenic tumor arising from the sheath of a peripheral nerve. Tc-99m(V) DMSA, developed by Yokoyama et al. in 1981, has been recognized as advantageous for the scintigraphic diagnosis of various malignant tumors and their metastases. Uptake of Tc-99m(V) DMSA was seen not only in malignant tumors but also in benign lesions. Tc-99m(V) DMSA has been reported to accumulate ...
متن کاملRole of Tc-99m MIBI and Tc-99m DMSA-V in Evaluation of Bone Tumors
Background: Bone sarcomas are usually aggressive tumors treated by multimodality approaches. Early detection of residual or recurrent tumor tissue after treatment is important in the management of these patients. This is currently achieved by clinical examination, diagnostic radiological procedures, radionuclide imaging techniques and detailed histological examination. Tumor response to preoper...
متن کاملMegaureter visualization on Tc-99m DMSA scintigraphy.
We present a patient with left-sided obstructed megaureter secondary to neuropathic bladder. He was referred for technetium-99m dimercaptosuccinic acid ((99m)Tc-DMSA) renal cortical scintigraphy to evaluate renal cortical function. Images obtained 4 hr after injection showed significant activity in the dilated left ureter. When the ureter is visualized on DMSA scan, obstructive megaureter shoul...
متن کاملImaging of medullary thyroid carcinoma with Tc-99m (V) DMSA [Persian]
Twenty-one patients with medullary thyroid carcinoma were studied prospectively with Tc-99m (V) DMSA after surgery. Pentavalent DMSA scintigram demonstrated abnormal uptake in 13 and equivocal uptake in 6 patients. Finally, seven patients with surgical or other imaging documentation were selected for this paper. Most of these patients were asymptomatic. Six patients had hypercalcitonemia ...
متن کاملTc-99m-HMPAO uptake by bronchoalveolar cells.
Lung uptake of intravenously injected Tc-99m-HMPAO is observed in smokers and in lung toxicity due to various agents. We investigated the Tc-99m-HMPAO uptake of bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) cells in the lungs after incubation in in vitro conditions (6 patients), intravenous injection (IV) (7 patients) and inhalation (INH) (6 patients) of Tc-99m-HMPAO in order to show whether BAL cells are also ...
