Reply: Regarding Dynamic bone imaging with 99mTc-labeled diphosphonates and 18F-NaF: mechanisms and applications.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Dynamic bone scanning with (99m)Tc-labeled diphosphonates and (18)F-labeled sodium fluoride provides functional information sensitive for subtle changes in bone turnover and perfusion, which assists the clinical management of numerous osseous pathologies. This article reviews the mechanisms of uptake of (99m)Tc-labeled diphosphonates and (18)F-sodium fluoride and discusses and compares the performance of these bone-seeking radiotracers for clinical and research applications, using dynamic and multiple-time-point imaging protocols and quantitative techniques.

In the 1970s, 18F-labeled sodium fluoride (18F-NaF), one of the most ubiquitous positron-emitting radiopharmaceuticals, was briefly used for skeletal scintigraphy before the introduction of 99mTc-labeled diphosphonates with optimal characteristics for conventional g cameras (1,2). 18F-NaF is an analog of the hydroxyl group found in hydroxyapatite bone crystals and therefore an avid bone seeker ...

Stanford University, Department of Radiology, Division of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, USA Here we prospectively compared the combined 18F NaF/18F FDG PET/ MRI against 99mTc-MDP in patients with breast and prostate cancers. Twelve patients referred for 99mTc-MDP bone scans were prospectively enrolled from Oct 14 Jan 15. The cohort included 6 men with prostate cancer and 6 women with ...
متن کاملLiver Metastasis of Lung Cancer Detected with Similar Uptake Pattern on Bone Scintigraphy and Fluorine-18 Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography: What's the Pathophysiologic Mechanism?
Bone scintigraphy with 99mTc diphosphonates may exhibit extraosseous lesions in addition to metastatic lesions. Multiple factors can affect extraosseous 99mTc methylene diphosphonate (MDP) uptake. Similar uptake pattern of 99mTc MDP and fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18F FDG) in hepatic metastasis was not already notified. In our case, initial tumor necrosis and subsequent intracellular calcif...
متن کاملSynthesis, Radiolabeling and Biological Evaluation of 99mTc-labeled Deoxyglucose Derivatives for Molecular Imaging
Two deoxyglucose (DG) derivatives, (α,β)-2-deoxy-2-amino(ethylcarbamate)-D-glucose (ECB-DG) and (α,β)-2-deoxy-2-amino(1,2-dihydroxypropyl)-D-glucose (DHP-DG), were synthesized and radiolabeled successfully with [99mTc(H2O)3(CO)3]+ complex. [99mTc]-ECB-DG and [99mTc]-DHP-DG complexes were prepared (96% and 93% radiochemical purities respectively) by using 46 mCi of Na99mTcO4 in 1 mL saline. Radi...
