Breast cancer imaging: a new role of Tc-99m sestamibi prone scintimammography for diagnosisof breast cancer
Mammography remians the procedure of choice in screening asymptomatic women for breast cancer. However, in patients with symptoms, other types of imaging play an important role in the detection of malignancies. The high cost and lack of availability of PET and MRI largely precludes the use in this patient population. TI-201 is nbt the imaging agent of choice because of its wash-out and redistri...

متن کاملBreast cancer: monitoring response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy using Tc-99m sestamibi scintimammography.
BACKGROUND Aim of the study was to assess the value of scintimammography using Tc-99m sestamibi in the evaluation of tumor response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy. MATERIAL ANS METHODS: Results were calculated for 9 patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Scintimammography using 740 MBq Tc-99m sestamibi was performed before, during and after chemotherapy, and sestamibi uptake was scored visu...
متن کاملNew method for breast cancer detection using TC-99m sestamibi scintimammography.
The combination of breast examination and radiographic mammography (XRMM) are the established methods for breast cancer detection. However, XRMM lacks sensitivity and specificity in women with dense breasts, leading to false positive findings in 80% and false negative findings in 10% to 15% of the cases. Tc-99m Sestamibi (MIBI) scintimammography (SMM) is a new breast-imaging technique. This stu...
متن کاملMolecular breast imaging: a new technique using technetium Tc 99m scintimammography to detect small tumors of the breast.
OBJECTIVE To determine the sensitivity of molecular breast imaging (MBI) to detect small cancers of the breast. PATIENTS AND METHODS A cadmium-zinc-telluride gamma camera with a field of view of 20 x 20 cm was used. The detector elements were 2.5 x 2.5 mm. The gamma camera was mounted on a modified mammographic gantry. Between November 2001 and March 2004, we performed MBI on patients who wer...
