Myocardial 99mTc-MDP uptake on the bone scintigraphy in the hemodialysis-associated amyloidosis: A case report [Persian]
Amyloidosis is characterized by an abnormal extracellular deposition of amyloid in different organs, where it usually causes some type of dysfunction. Its cause is unknown. Five different types of amyloidosis have been described according to the underlying disease; immunoglobulin amyloidosis, familial amyloidosis, senile systemic amyloidosis, secondary amyloidosis and hemodialysis-associa...
متن کامل99mTc-aprotinin scintigraphy in amyloidosis.
UNLABELLED Changes in the amount and distribution of amyloid lesions have been difficult to monitor because they can usually be demonstrated only by evident symptoms or from a biopsy. The recent progress in the treatment of amyloidosis stresses the need for an early diagnosis and the need for noninvasive monitoring during the course of treatment. To validate (99m)Tc-aprotinin scintigraphy, we s...

متن کاملExtra osseous uptake of 99mTc-MDP in psoas muscle on bone scintigraphy: Importance of SPECT/CT imaging
Incidental extra-osseous uptake of 99mTc-MDP on bone scintigraphy has been frequently reported in the literature; however, calcification of the psoas muscle is a rare condition, which has been reported on magnetic resonance (MR) and computed tomography (CT) imagings. Here we report a 67-year-old woman with acute paraplegia and low back pain who was referred for a 99mTc-MDP...
متن کاملAn Incidentally Detected Breast Cancer on Tc-99m MIBI Cardiac Scintigraphy
Tc-99m methoxyisobutylisonitrile (MIBI) scintigraphy is generally used as a second-line diagnostic tool for obscured breast lesions. When the entire field of view is examined carefully, it is often possible to detect additional lesions unrelated to the initial intent and purpose of the examination. Herein we present a case of breast cancer incidentally detected by cardiac Tc-99m MIBI scintigrap...
