Gallium-67 imaging in lymphoma: tricks of the trade.
OBJECTIVE Although the use of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET for evaluating lymphoma is gaining in popularity, PET is not yet universally available and large prospective comparisons between 67Ga and 18F-FDG PET scans in predicting the long-term outcome after treatment are lacking. Scintigraphic imaging with 67Ga remains an important tool in evaluating the response of lymphoma to therapy. Ther...
متن کامل[Usefulness of gallium-67 scintigraphy in diagnosing pyothorax-associated lymphoma].
Two cases of pyothorax-associated malignant lymphoma were reported. The presence of chronic tuberculous pyothorax after thoracoplasty and the development of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma on the chest wall are closely related. Both patients had suffered from tuberculous pyothorax for more than thirty years, and developed new painful chest wall tumors. CT and MRI delineated both malignant lymphoma and p...
متن کاملGallium-67 scintigraphy in polymyalgia rheumatica.
A patient with atypical presentation of polymyalgia rheumatica is presented. Her major symptoms were mild weakness, pain on passive movement of the shoulder and hip girdles, with mild tenderness but no joint stiffness. Muscle enzymes were within the normal range. The diagnostic work-up included gallium-67 scintigraphy, which showed intense uptake in both shoulders, with remarkable improvement f...
متن کاملGallium-67 scintigraphy in macrophagic myofasciitis.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate gallium-67 (67Ga) uptake and the value of 67Ga scintigraphy for diagnosis of macrophagic myofasciitis (MMF), a recently identified inflammatory myopathy. METHODS Twelve consecutive patients with MMF confirmed by muscle biopsy, 10 with polymyositis, 10 with sarcoidosis, 8 with fibromyalgia, and 10 with lymphoma without muscle symptoms (serving as normal controls for muscl...
متن کاملGallium-67 scintigraphy in lung diseases.
There is some disagreement in the literature about the tumour affinity and tumour specificity of gallium-67 (6VGa). The present investigation showed good uptake of 67Ga in most cases of bronchial carcinoma, but some uptake of 67Ga was also found in 30% of those with non-malignant lung lesions. There was no relationship between the uptake of 17Ga and the histo-logical type of bronchial carcinoma...
