Assessment of Salivary and Lacrimal Gland Dysfunction after Radioiodine Therapy Using 99mTc-Pertechnetate Scintigraphy
Background: Iodine-131 (I-131) is an effective treatment for differentiated thyroid carcinomas (DTC) after surgery. Salivary and lacrimal gland dysfunction has been described in patients receiving high doses of 1-131 due to radiation damage to salivary and lacrimal glands. Objective: This prospective study was conducted to determine the short term effect of oral 1-131 therapy administered to th...

Objective(s): To review the findings of the patients with Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) having technetium-99m-pertechnetate (99mTc-pertechnetate) and gallium-67 citrate (Ga-67) salivary gland scintigraphy in the past eight years.Methods: The patients with SS, who were referred to our department for salivary gland scintigraphy during January 2008-December 2015 were studied using both 99mTc-pertechneta...
متن کاملQuantitative salivary gland scintigraphy.
OBJECTIVE Uptake of 99mTc-pertechnetate in salivary glands reflects intact salivary gland parenchyma. However, no standardized protocol for an accurate quantification of parenchymal function has been established so far. METHODS In this paper we report on a validated acquisition protocol supplying a normal database for standardized quantitative salivary gland scintigraphy. RESULTS The major ...

متن کاملExtrathyroidal uptake from thyroid carcinoma on 99mTc-pertechnetate scintigraphy.
Three cases of imaging with 99mTc-pertechnetate (99mTcO4) and unusual positive lymph node uptake in the neck are reported hereby. Two cases were later diagnosed to be well-differentiated thyroid carcinoma, (DTC) with nodal metastasis. The third was a confirmed case of carcinoma thyroid that had presented with mass in the neck soon after surgery, being prepared for ablative dose of radioactive i...
