Diffuse lung uptake of 111In octreotide from chronic emphysema.
A 62-y-old woman was found to have a lung mass and a brain mass. The brain mass was resected, and the histopathologic findings were suggestive of a gastrointestinal primary tumor with neuroendocrine features. She was referred for an 111In-octreotide SPECT/CT scan to evaluate for somatostatin-avid disease. After injection of 222 MBq (6 mCi) of 111In-octreotide, planar SPECT images (Fig. 1A) and ...
متن کاملIncreased uptake of 111In-octreotide in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
UNLABELLED Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is characterized by an uncontrolled accumulation and activation of lung fibroblasts. A modulation of fibroblast activation has been observed in various systems with octreotide, a synthetic somatostatin analog with strong affinity for the somatostatin receptor subtype 2 (sst2). One aim of our study was to evaluate the expression of somatostatin rece...
متن کامل[Lung volume reduction surgery for diffuse emphysema].
BACKGROUND Lung volume reduction surgery (LVRS) performed to treat patients with severe diffuse emphysema was reintroduced in the nineties. Lung volume reduction surgery aims to resect damaged emphysematous lung tissue, thereby increasing elastic properties of the lung. This treatment is hypothesised to improve long-term daily functioning and quality of life, although it may be costly and may b...
متن کاملGelatin-based plasma expander effectively reduces renal uptake of 111In-octreotide in mice and rats.
UNLABELLED 111In-Diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid-octreotide generally is used for the scintigraphic imaging of neuroendocrine and other somatostatin receptor-positive tumors. On the basis of the successful targeting of octreotide, radiolabeled somatostatin analogs, such as 90Y-(1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-N,N',N'',N'''-tetraacetic acid [DOTA])0-Tyr3-octreotide and 177Lu-DOTA0-Tyr3-octreot...
