Radionuclide bone SPECT/CT in orthopaedics
Radionuclide 99mTc-MDP planar bone scan is the most commonly performed nuclear medicine procedure and may aid diagnosis of benign and malignant bone pathologies. 99mTc-MDP is injected intravenously and subsequently taken up by osteoblasts and incorporated into the bone matrix. In the process it acts as a marker for new bone formation, bone turnover and local vascularity. The high sensitivity of...
متن کاملRadionuclide Esophageal Transit Scintigraphy in Primary Hypothyroidism
Background/Aims Esophageal dysmotility is associated with gastrointestinal dysmotility in various systemic and neuroregulatory disorders. Hypothyroidism has been reported to be associated with impaired motor function in esophagus due to accumulation of glycosaminoglycan hyaluronic acid in its soft tissues, leading to changes in various contraction and relaxation parameters of esophagus, particu...
متن کاملThe Application of Radionuclide Infarct Scintigraphy
To evaluate the application of radionuclide infarct scintigraphy to diagnose myocardial infarction after revascularization, we obtained postoperative technetium 99m pyrophosphate myocardial scintigrams, serial electrocardiograms and CPK-MB isoenzymes in ten control and 51 revascularized patients. All control patients had negative electrocardiograms and scintigrams, but eight had positive isoenz...
متن کاملBile leak detection by radionuclide scintigraphy.
INTRODUCTION Bile leak after liver injury has been reported to be a complication associated with significant mortality. Tc99m-IDA (Tc: Technetium) nuclear scan allows rapid and noninvasive diagnosis of bile leak. OBJECTIVE An accidental case was referred for the detection of suspicious bile leak. METHODS The ultrasound could not detect any abnormality. Dynamic Hepatobiliary Scintigraphy (DH...
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...
