چکیده

skeletal metastasis is one of the most important disabling complications of the malignant diseases. as in general, the survival of patients with osteometastatic lesions is relatively long, an early diagnosis can lead to improve the patient’s life, both quantitatively and qualitatively, and prevent exacerbation of the disease and disabling complications. in this study, 22 patients with established diagnosis of malignant disease and clinical manifestations of skeletal metastasis were evaluated both with 99mtc-mibi and 99mtc-mdp whole body scans, in two separate phases. patients’ diagnoses were as following: small round cell tumor, breast carcinoma, nasopharynx carcinoma and multiple myeloma. in the first phase of the study a whole body bone scan was performed by iv injection of 740mbq 99mtc-mdp. after a period of 1 week a whole body scan was carried out by 99mtc-mibi for all the patients. no treatment such as radiation therapy or chemotherapy was done in this 1 week interval. the number and intensity of the scan findings were compared visually, according to the three-phase staging, subsequently. whole body survey with 99mtc-mibi in 14 out of 22 patients were positive, demonstrating only 44.4% of bony lesions established on whole body bone scan with 99mtc-mdp. the mean value of intensity of radiotracer uptake, was around 1.5+ (mild to moderate). on the other hand in 7 patients with positive 99mtc-mibi scan some hidden soft tissue lesions (mostly lymph nodes) were detected with intensity of 2+. so this study shows that whole body bone scan is preferable for detection of widespread metastasis comparing with 99mtc-mibi whole body scan. the singnificance of 99mtc-mibi scan is mainly limited to some equivocal of soft tissue lesions.

99mTc-MDP whole body bone scan in a case of acute disseminated melioidosis

Melioidosis is a potentially fatal infectious disease occurring predominantly in the tropics, caused by a Gram-negative, motile, rod shaped obligatory aerobic non-spore forming bacillus, Burkholderia pseudomallei. It can produce localised or disseminated disease largely affecting immunocompromised patients. It is a challenge to identify melioidosis early as this disease can manipulate host’s ce...

Despite recent advances in therapeutic and diagnostic approaches, coronary artery disease (CAD) and its related cardiac disorders represent the most common cause of death in the United States. Nuclear myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) technologies play a pivotal role in the diagnosis and treatment design for CAD. Recently, in order to develop improved MPI agents for diagnosis of CAD, (99m)Tc-[...

Bone turnover markers are correlated with total skeletal uptake of 99mTc-methylene diphosphonate (99mTc-MDP)

BACKGROUND Skeletal uptake of 99mTc labelled methylene diphosphonate (99mTc-MDP) is used for producing images of pathological bone uptake due to its incorporation to the sites of active bone turnover. This study was done to validate bone turnover markers using total skeletal uptake (TSU) of 99mTc-MDP. METHODS 22 postmenopausal women (52-80 years) volunteered to participate. Scintigraphy was p...
