Two decades ago, lymphatic mapping of sentinel lymph nodes (SLN) was introduced into surgical cancer management and was termed sentinel node navigated surgery. Although this technique is now routinely performed in the management of breast cancer and malignant melanoma, it is still under investigation for use in other cancers. The radioisotope technetium ((99m)Tc) and vital blue dyes are among t...
Lesions in acute herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) have been reported to show decreased uptake of Tc-99m ethyl cysteinate dimer (ECD). A patient with acute HSE displaying a lesion in the left temporal lobe was evaluated by means of Tc-99m ECD single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). Dynamic SPECT images indicated regionally increased uptake of tracer in the ipsilateral temporal lobe ...
UNLABELLED Interleukin 8 (IL-8) is a chemotactic cytokine that binds with a high affinity to receptors expressed on neutrophils. Previous studies with various animal models showed that (99m)Tc-labeled IL-8 accumulates specifically and rapidly in infectious and inflammatory foci. The aims of the present study were to evaluate the safety of IL-8 in humans and to assess the value of (99m)Tc-IL-8 s...
PURPOSE (99m)Tc-3P-RGD2 is a (99m)Tc-labeled dimeric cyclic RGD peptide that binds to integrin α(v)β₃ with high affinity and specificity. The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the utility of (99m)Tc-3P-RGD₂ SPECT/CT (single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography) as a molecular imaging tool for noninvasive monitoring breast tumor early response to antiangiogenesis therap...
UNLABELLED Human beta-defensin-3 (HBD-3) is an antimicrobial peptide with bactericidal effects on many gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria and some yeast species and, if radiolabeled, might be used to distinguish bacterial infection from sterile inflammation. The goals of the present study were to develop methods for radiolabeling HBD-3 with (99m)Tc and to perform preliminary investigation...
BACKGROUND We aimed to determine the accuracy of laser Doppler perfusion imaging (LDPI) in an animal model for hind limb ischemia. METHODS We used a murine (C57Bl/6 mice) ischemic hind limb model in which we compared LDPI with the clinically used (99m)Tc-sestamibi SPECT perfusion imaging (n = 7). In addition, we used the SPECT tracer (99m)Tc-pyrophosphate ((99m)Tc-PyP) to image muscular damag...
Simultaneous Tl-201/Tc-99m dual isotope myocardial perfusion SPECT is seriously hampered by down-scatter from Tc-99m into the Tl-201 energy window. This paper presents and optimises the ordered-subsets-expectation-maximisation-(OS-EM-) based reconstruction algorithm, which corrects the down-scatter using an efficient Monte Carlo (MC) simulator. The algorithm starts by first reconstructing the T...
BACKGROUND (18)FDG-PET plays a significant role in diagnosing malignancy of lung lesions but remains an expensive test available at a limited number of sites in Italy. OBJECTIVE We prospectively compare the diagnostic accuracy of (99m)Tc-MIBI- SPECT and (18)FDG-PET in patients with indeterminate lung lesions to demonstrate that (99m)Tc-MIBI-SPECT may be considered as a valid alternative when ...
INTRODUCTION The Tc-99m-ciprofloxacin complex, introduced in 1993, has been extensively evaluated all over the world with good results for the diagnosis of active bacterial osteoarticular infections. There are only a few publications on the use of this procedure in pediatric ages. In our study we evaluated the efficacy of the Tc-99m ciprofloxacin scan for the diagnosis of osteoarticular infecti...
(99m)Tc-galactosyl human serum albumin (GSA) scintigraphy is useful to evaluate hepatic function and hepatic functional reserve. A reliable SPECT and CT integrated system is now commercially available. Using this system, we can obtain (99m)Tc-GSA SPECT/CT fused imaging with a small registration error. Therefore, the (99m)Tc-GSA scintigraphy techniques prove more useful in clinical practice than...
