Pulmonary Endothelial Impairment During Gefitinib Therapy: A Preliminary Assessment with Iodine-123-Metaiodobenzylguanidine (123I- MIBG) Scintigraphy
Iodine-123-metaiodobenzylguanidine ( 123 I-MIBG) kinetics in the lung could serve as a novel diagnostic tool to evaluate endothelial damage. Interstitial lung disease (ILD) associated with gefitinib, an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), has been reported as a serious adverse effect. This study was performed to examine the possibility that gefitinib induces...

(I-MIBG) Imaging in Brugada Syndrome To the Editor: We read with interest a recent article in Circulation by Wichter et al1 on cardiac autonomic dysfunction in Brugada syndrome. The authors demonstrated that regionally reduced iodine-123-metaiodobenzylguanidine (I-MIBG) uptake in the inferior and septal left ventricular wall was present in 8 (47%) of 17 patients with Brugada syndrome but in non...

متن کاملComparison of iodine-123 metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) scan and [18F]fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography to evaluate response after iodine-131 MIBG therapy for relapsed neuroblastoma.
PURPOSE Children with relapsed neuroblastoma have poor survival. It is crucial to have a reliable method for evaluating functional response to new therapies. In this study, we compared two functional imaging modalities for neuroblastoma: metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) scan for uptake by the norepinephrine transporter and [(18)F]fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) uptake fo...
