Hepatobiliary excretion of 99mTc-EC: A potential source of mistake in the interpretation of renal scintigraphy
A 10-year-old boy with a history of bloody discoloration of urine following recent appendectomy was referred to our department for urinary leakage/fistula evaluation. A renal Technetium-99m-L,L-ethylenedicysteine (99mTc-EC) scintigraphy was performed. After injection of radiotracer, a focus of activity appeared in the supralateral part of the right kidney which was confirmed as accum...
متن کاملCharacterization of Hepatobiliary Scintigraphy using Linear Equations
Hepatobiliary radionuclide imaging is typically performed to assess the acute or chronic cholecystitis. Occasionally, initial 1 h imaging reveals an obstructive pattern of radiopharmaceutical distribution with non-visualization of the hepatic or extra-hepatic (EH) bile ducts, gallbladder and small intestinal activity. One hundred and thirty five infants under 12 months of age (65 females and 70...
متن کاملHepatobiliary scintigraphy in 2014.
Cholescintigraphy with (99m)Tc-hepatobiliary radiopharmaceuticals has been an important, clinically useful diagnostic imaging study for almost 4 decades. It continues to be in much clinical demand; however, the indications, methodology, and interpretative criteria have evolved over the years. This review will emphasize state-of-the-art methodology and diagnostic criteria for various clinical in...
متن کاملThe non-conventional use of 99mTc-Tetrofosmine for dynamic hepatobiliary scintigraphy.
BACKGROUND Classic dynamic hepatobiliary scintigraphy (DHBS) is commonly performed with 99mTc-Iminodiacetic Acid (IDA) derivatives and represents a non-invasive diagnosis method for biliary dyskinesia, fistulas, surgical anastomosis, etc (1). This study assesses the possibility of performing DHBS with 99mTc-Tetrofosmine (TF), a radiopharmaceutical (RF) dedicated to myocardial perfusion scintigr...
متن کامل99mTc sestamibi imaging - can it be a useful substitute for hepatobiliary scintigraphy in infantile jaundice?
AIM Hepatobiliary scintigraphy is an integral part in the diagnostic work-up of the neonatal cholestasis syndrome. However, less than optimal specificity is its major disadvantage. Differentiation between biliary atresia and neonatal hepatitis is nearly impossible in some cases with poor hepatocellular function. 99mTc sestamibi (MIBI) is a cationic lipophilic agent which is a substrate of P-gly...
