Radionuclide parathyroid imaging: a concise, updated review.
The hypercalcemia of hyperparathyroidism (HPT) can cause devastating effects to the patient and only surgical removal of the hyperfunctioning parathyroid tissue can definitely cure the disease. Radionuclide parathyroid imaging has no role in the diagnosis of hyperparathyroidism or in the selection of the type of treatment. However, once surgery is decided (99m)Tc-sestamibi scanning can localize...
متن کاملRadionuclide Imaging of Musculoskeletal Infection: A Review.
There are numerous imaging tests for diagnosing musculoskeletal infection. Radiographs are routinely performed, because even when not diagnostic, they provide an anatomic overview of the region of interest that could influence subsequent procedure selection and interpretation. MRI is sensitive and provides superb anatomic detail. Bone scintigraphy accurately diagnoses osteomyelitis in bones not...
متن کاملMagnetic resonance imaging ancillary features used in Liver Imaging Reporting and Data System: An illustrative review
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) usually develops in the setting of chronic liver disease. In the adequate clinical context, both multiphasic contrast-enhanced CT and magnetic resonance imaging are non-invasive modalities that allow accurate diagnosis and staging of HCC, although the latter demonstrates greater sensitivity and specificity. Imaging criteria for HCC diagnosis rely on hemodynamic fe...
متن کاملRadionuclide Bone Scintigraphy: An Interesting Case Report
It is well established that Technetiummethylene diphosphonate (Tc MDP) whole body bone scintigraphy (WBBS) can demonstrate multiple lesions with increased radiotracer concentration in involved bone. But it is hard to differentiate multiple benign osteolytic lesions from disseminated bone metastases. Even combined with medical history and multiple imaging results, clinical diagnosis of metastati...
متن کاملBone-Targeted Imaging and Radionuclide Therapy in Prostate Cancer.
Although selective metabolic and receptor-based molecular agents will surely be included in the future of prostate cancer diagnosis and therapy, currently available inorganic compounds-such as 18F-NaF for the diagnosis of bony disease and 223RaCl2 for the therapy of bone metastases-were recently shown to be superior to standard 99mTc-phosphonates for diagnosis and 153Sm-ethylenediaminetetrameth...
