Bone scintigraphy in diagnosing chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis
A 10-year-old boy was referred to us for evaluation of FUO accompanied with bone pain in both calves. Three hours after intravenous injection of 13 mCi of 99mTc-MDP, whole body scan in multiple spot views was performed. The scan showed symmetrical areas of diffusely increased tracer uptake in multiple long bones. Histopathologic evaluation confirmed osteosclrosis and fibrotic changes...
متن کاملMultifocal skeletal tuberculosis: Bone scan appearance [Persian]
Multifocal skeletal tuberculosis in not uncommon in the countries with tuberculosis. The clinical onest is insidious and sometimes nonspecific, resulting in delay or misdiagnosis. Bone scan appearance is presented in some reports, as multiple abnormal accumulations of tracer. This report describes an unusual presentation of multifocal skeletal tuberculosis.
متن کاملCorrelation between CT scan and automated perimetry in supratentorial tumors.
An attempt was made to correlate various types of visual field defects on automated perimetry with the findings of computed tomography in 44 patients of supratentorial tumors. All the patients above the age of 10 years were subjected to complete neurological examination including investigations like plain X-rays and CT scan, however, MRI and angiography were performed wherever indicated. Ocular...
متن کاملA comparative study of whole body DWIBS MRI versus bone scan for evaluating skeletal metastases.
BACKGROUND Skeletal metastases in oncology patients are identified by Bone scan and/Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scan. But developing countries in the world still lack adequate numbers of these imaging facilities. AIMS Since Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is widely available as compared to bone scan or PET scan; a double blind study was undertaken to see if whole body imaging with MRI...
متن کاملFDG avid breast cancer bone metastases silent on CT and scintigraphy: a case report with radiologic-pathologic correlation
Bone is the one of the most common distant metastatic sites in breast cancer. Routine initial breast cancer staging evaluation typically includes computed tomography (CT) and skeletal scintigraphy while 18F fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) is reserved for clinically high-risk cases. Since FDG PET-CT is not routinely performed during staging or s...
