(99m)Tc-MDP uptake in soft-tissue osteosarcoma in a dog.
A 6-year-old, female Alaskan malamute domestic dog was presented for a bone scintigraphy with a soft tissue tumour of 4 months duration. The tumour at the time of scintigraphic examination was 10 cm in diameter and was localized in the lateral line on the right chest along the 11th rib. Pathologic diagnosis based upon fine needle biopsy was osteogenic sarcoma. The aim of the scan was to assess ...
متن کاملPathologic hepatic Tc-99m-MDP uptake in polyostotic fibrous dysplasia.
Fibrous dysplasia of bone is a congenital, sporadic developmental disorder characterized by immature fibrous connective tissue and bone deformities. Hepatic Tc-99m-MDP uptake is a rare, serendipitous finding during bone scanning studies. The present patient was a 25-year-old male who had severe polyostotic fibrous dysplasia. On Tc-99m-MDP (methylene diphosphonate) bone scintigraphy, increased a...
متن کاملComparison of Tc-99m MDP, Tc-99m HSA and Tc-99m HIG uptake in rheumatoid arthritis and its variants.
Tc-99m polyclonal immunoglobulin-G has been shown to be a successful agent in the depiction of active inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The objective of this study was to compare the uptake behaviors of Tc-99m HIG and Tc-99m MDP in RA and variants of rheumatoid arthritis (VRA). Seventeen patients with RA and 8 patients with VRA presenting with active inflammation were included in this ...
متن کاملDiffuse splenic Tc-99m MDP uptake in hypersplenic patient.
A 52-year-old woman with nonspecific left leg pain was examined by Tc-99m methylene diphosphonate (MDP) bone scintigraphy. The patient had been a marble quarry worker for 10 years and had developed chronic congestive heart failure secondary to pneumoconiosis. Her hemoglobin analysis and hematologic findings were interpreted as being consistent with sickle cell beta+ thalassemia and also hypersp...
متن کاملQuantitative evaluation of normal uptake of mandibular condyle in bone scan with Tc 99m-MDP [Persian]
Unilateral condylar hyperplasia is the main cause of mandibular asymmetry. Radionuclide bone scanning is a useful procedure for functional evaluation of temporomandibular joint. In this study, 39 patients with normal bone scan and no facial asymmetry were studied. All patients were below 22 years of age. Normal condylar uptake was determined in this group of patients. Right & left condyla...
