Distribution of lung blood on modified bilateral Glenn shunt evaluated by Tc-99m-MAA lung perfusion scintigraphy
The aim of the present study was to determine the distribution of lung blood in a modified bilateral Glenn procedure designed in our institute with lung perfusion scintigraphy. Sixteen consecutive patients who underwent modified bilateral Glenn operation from 2011 to 2014 were enrolled in the study. The control group consisted of 7 patients who underwent bidirectional Glenn shunt. Radionuclide ...
متن کاملAssessment of lung toxicity caused by bleomycin and amiodarone by Tc-99m HMPAO lung scintigraphy in rats
AIM The purpose of the study was to determine the lung toxicity caused by amiodarone (AD) and bleomycin (BLM) in rats, by means of Tc-99m HMPAO lung scintigraphy. METHODS Thirty albino rats were randomly divided into five groups. After AD or BLM was dissolved with isotonic saline (SF), a 0.5 ml solution was applied to the right bronchus via a catheter. Group 1 (n = 5 rats) received a single d...
متن کاملAbsent pulmonary uptake on 99mTc MAA perfusion lung scan due to severe right-to-left shunt.
c 5 XTRAPULMONARY accumulation of Tc macroaggregated albumin (MAA) is rarely een on perfusion lung scan, and has been reported n less than 4% of a study population of nearly 380 atients.1 It occurs when the agent bypasses the ungs due to a right-to-left (R-L) cardiac or pulonary shunt, when it is shunted to the portal vein efore reaching the right atrium and ventricle of he heart, and when the ...
متن کاملHydrothorax in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis: therapeutic implications of Tc-99m MAA peritoneal scintigraphy.
Key words: continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis confirmed a massive left-sided pleural effusion (Figure 1a). The echocardiogram revealed concentric (CAPD); end-stage renal disease (ESRD); hydro-thorax; Tc-99m macroaggregated human albumin left ventricular hypertrophy with adequate global performance , and no pericardial effusion. The abdominal (MAA) peritoneal scintigraphy sonogram showed ...
متن کاملMegaureter visualization on Tc-99m DMSA scintigraphy.
We present a patient with left-sided obstructed megaureter secondary to neuropathic bladder. He was referred for technetium-99m dimercaptosuccinic acid ((99m)Tc-DMSA) renal cortical scintigraphy to evaluate renal cortical function. Images obtained 4 hr after injection showed significant activity in the dilated left ureter. When the ureter is visualized on DMSA scan, obstructive megaureter shoul...
