چکیده

Figure 1. Brain perfusion emission tomography (Tc-exametazime; 740 MBq, 60 min after injection): transaxial slice (A) and selected views from 3D surface rendering reconstruction (B), showed a hot lesion outside the brain limits. Computed tomography (CT) of the head revealed a lytic lesion in the frontal right bone, that exactly corresponds to the hot spot seen on scintigraphy: brain (C) and bone (D) window.

The usefulness of brain perfusion SPECT in an infant with focal convulsions associated with hemophilus influenzae central nervous system infection.

Left hemiconvulsions occurred in a 13-month-old girl with Hemophilus influenzae (H. influenzae) central nervous system (CNS) infection. Tc-99m HMPAO brain SPECT showed a focal hyperperfusion area in the right frontal lobe. The patient recovered without complications, and follow-up SPECT revealed markedly improved findings. Tc-99m HMPAO brain SPECT is useful for evaluating focal convulsions asso...

Cerebral perfusion abnormalities in cases of Down syndrome.

A SPECT (single photon emission computed tomography using Tc-99m HMPAO) study of brain with segmental quantitative analysis was conducted to access the cerebral perfusion in cases of Downs syndrome (DS). Varying level of brain hypo-perfusion was documented, probably explaining the neurophysiologic basis of cognitive and neuropsychological deficits, which are not well understood in DS.

Tc-99m HMPAO brain SPECT in linear nevus sebaceous syndrome.

The authors present a case of linear nevus sebaceous syndrome (LNSS) with atrophy of bilateral frontotemporal areas of the brain, left cerebellum and hippocampus, and bilateral uncal dysplasia demonstrated by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Magnetic resonance angiography revealed bilateral internal carotid artery hypoplasia with absence of flow in the anterior and middle cerebral arteries. Tc...

Extra osseous uptake of 99mTc-MDP in psoas muscle on bone scintigraphy: Importance of SPECT/CT imaging

Incidental extra-osseous uptake of 99mTc-MDP on bone scintigraphy has been frequently reported in the literature; however, calcification of the psoas muscle is a rare condition, which has been reported on magnetic resonance (MR) and computed tomography (CT) imagings. Here we report a 67-year-old woman with acute paraplegia and low back pain who was referred for a 99mTc-MDP...

SPECT in periodic lateralized epileptiform discharges (PLEDs): a case report on PLEDs.

Periodic lateralized epileptiform discharges (PLEDs), which are known as unusual electroencephalogram (EEG) patterns, are described in a patient who had stroke and seizures. This patient underwent Tc-99m HMPAO (hexamethyl propylene amine oxime) brain single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging both during PLEDs on EEG and after the cessation of PLEDs. The initial SPECT study reve...
