Assessed by Quantitative Thallium-201 Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography
The extent of abnormally perfused myocardium was compared in patients with and without chest pain during treadmill exercise from a large, relatively low-risk consecutive patient population (n=356) referred for quantitative thallium-201 single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). All patients had concurrent coronary angiography. Patients were excluded if they had prior coronary angioplas...
متن کاملDifferentiation of malignant glioma and metastatic brain tumor by thallium-201 single photon emission computed tomography.
The use of superdelayed thallium-201 single photon emission computed tomography (201Tl SPECT) for differentiating malignant gliomas from cerebral metastases was investigated in 23 patients (7 with meningioma, 6 with glioma, 7 with cerebral metastasis, 1 with each of neurinoma, abscess, and necrosis). 4 mCi of 201Tl was injected intravenously, and gamma camera scans were performed after 10 minut...
متن کاملMicrocystic Meningioma with Late-phase Accumulation on Thallium-201 Single-photon Emission Computed Tomography: Case Report
Microcystic meningiomas are rare but benign brain tumors. Previous reports have shown that Thallium-201 single-photon emission computed tomography ((201)Tl SPECT) demonstrated a higher late-phase accumulation of (201)Tl in malignant or recurrent meningiomas than in nonaggressive meningiomas. No study has reported (201)Tl SPECT findings in microcystic meningiomas. We here describe a case of a mi...
متن کاملA study on differentiation of extra-cardiac activity by Slit Slat collimation in Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography
Introduction: Myocardial perfusion SPECTby 99mTc-Sestamibi and 99mTc-Tetrofosmin radiopharmaceuticals usually presents a false significant increase in the radiotracer uptake in the inferior myocardium due to the uptake in organs such as liver, bowel, stomach and biliary system. The present study evaluated a suitable Slit angle for differentiating extra-car...
متن کاملClear Cell Ependymoma of Spinal Cord: A Case Report
Clear cell variant of ependymoma is almost exclusively located in the supratentorial region. Only few cases of this tumor that located in the spinal cord have been reported. Here we report one case of intramedullary clear cell ependymoma of the lumbar spinal cord. In microscopic examination, the tumor cells were round to oval with moderate amounts of clear cytoplasm and centrally located lar...
