Technetium-99 m in the diagnosis of thyrotoxicosis.
The thyroid uptake at 20 minutes of intravenously administered Technetium-99(m) ((99m)Tc) was measured in 117 patients with a standard scintillation counter. Patients were divided into three groups on the basis of clinical assessment, four-hour (131)I uptake, triiodothyronine (T-3) resin uptake, and protein-bound iodine measurements.In 31 patients with no evidence of thyroid disease the mean (9...
متن کاملTechnetium-99m in the diagnosis of left-to-right shunts.
Radio-isotope techniques for the detection of intracardiac shunts have often employed extemal counting over the praecordium (Prinzmetal, Corday, Spritzler, and Flieg, 1949; Huff, Parrish, and Crockett, 1957; Greenspan, Lester, Marvin, and Amplatz, 1959; Turner, Salazar, and Gorlin, 1960; Shapiro and Sharpe, 1960). However, Folse and Braunwald (1962) counted over the upper lung field and claimed...

متن کاملDiagnosis of sternal wound infection by technetium-99m-leukocyte imaging.
An imaging study is needed that can detect sternal wound infections and distinguish between superficial and deep sternal wound infection when a clinical diagnosis is uncertain and a decision regarding surgical intervention must be made. We retrospectively reviewed the 99mTc-leukocyte scans of 29 patients referred to rule out sternal wound infection. The presence or absence of deep or superficia...
