Radiolabelled somatostatin analogue(s) for peptide receptor scintigraphy and radionuclide therapy.
BACKGROUND Peptide receptor scintigraphy with the radioactive somatostatin analogue, [111In-DTPA0]octreotide, is a sensitive and specific technique to show in vivo the presence and abundance of somatostatin receptors on various tumours. AIM With this technique primary tumours and metastases of neuroendocrine cancers as well as of many other cancer-types can be localised. This technique is cur...
متن کاملSomatostatin receptor scintigraphy and gallium scintigraphy in patients with sarcoidosis.
UNLABELLED Somatostatin receptor scintigraphy (SRS) has been shown to reveal sarcoidosis sites. The aim of this study was to prospectively compare SRS and gallium scintigraphy in the evaluation of pulmonary and extrapulmonary involvement in patients with proven sarcoidosis. METHODS Eighteen patients with biopsy-proven sarcoidosis were included. Nine were or recently had been receiving steroid...
متن کاملSomatostatin receptor scintigraphy in cutaneous malignant lymphomas.
BACKGROUND Lymphoid cells may express somatostatin receptors (SS-Rs) on their cell surface. Therefore radiolabeled somatostatin analogues may be used to visualize SS-R-positive lymphoid neoplasms in vivo. Exact staging is the basis for treatment decisions in cutaneous malignant lymphoma. We considered the possibility that SS-R scintigraphy might offer a clinically useful method of diagnostic im...
متن کاملSomatostatin-receptor scintigraphy in primary breast cancer.
Somatostatin-receptor (SS-R) scintigraphy successfully shows primary cancers and distant metastases in most patients with carcinoids, islet cells tumours, and paragangliomas. Previous in-vitro studies indicated that somatostatin receptors are present in human breast cancers. We report positive scintigraphy with [111In-DTPA-D-Phe1]-octreotide in 39 of 52 primary breast cancers (75%). Parallel in...
متن کاملSomatostatin-receptor scintigraphy identifies a cardiac pheochromocytoma.
A17-year-old woman had paroxysmal hypertension. Very high levels of urinary catecholamines suggested a diagnosis of pheochromocytoma (urinary norepinephrine 27 600 nmol/24 hours, normal ,485 nmol/24 hours; urinary normetanephrine 37 607 nmol/24 hours, normal ,2000 nmol/24 hours), but no adrenal tumor was found on the abdominal CT scan. Metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) whole-body scintigraphy was ...
