BACKGROUND Septal penetration causes collimator-dependent differences in the heart-to-mediastinum (H/M) ratio in 123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) cardiac imaging. We investigated generally applicable methods to correct such differences. METHODS AND RESULTS Four hours after 123I-MIBG injection, 40 patients underwent anterior chest imaging successively with medium-energy (ME) and various non...
BACKGROUND Heart failure has been associated with impaired cardiac sympathetic neuronal function. Cardiac imaging with radiolabeled agents that are substrates for the neuronal norepinephrine transporter (NET) has demonstrated the potential to identify individuals at risk of cardiac events. N-[3-Bromo-4-(3-[18F]fluoro-propoxy)-benzyl]-guanidine (LMI1195) is a newly developed 18F-labeled NET subs...
Adrenal incidentalomas are defined as asymptomatic adrenal masses occasionally discovered during high-resolution imaging procedures such as computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance (MR). Pheochromocytoma, a potentially lethal chromaffin tumour, must be excluded before any invasive diagnostic procedures to avoid massive catecholamines release. Chromogranin A (CgA) is a member of the granin...
UNLABELLED Myocardial imaging with 123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) was performed on 35 patients with Parkinson's disease and 24 control subjects to evaluate cardiac sympathetic function in patients with Parkinson's disease, verify this phenomenon and examine whether myocardial MIBG uptake and clearance are correlated with the clinical severity of Parkinson's disease. METHODS We studied 35...
Peptide-receptor imaging and therapy with radiolabeled somatostatin analogs such as 68Ga-DOTA-TATE and 177Lu-DOTA-TATE have become an effective treatment option for SSTR-positive neuroendocrine tumors. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the correlation of somatostatin receptor-2 (SSTR2) expression with 68Ga-DOTA-TATE uptake and 177Lu-DOTA-TATE therapy in neuroblastoma (NB) xenograft mode...
Abstract Cardiac sympathetic activity plays a key role in supporting cardiac function both health and disease conditions, nuclear imaging has always represented the only way for non-invasive evaluation of functional integrity terminals, mainly through use radiopharmaceuticals that are analogues norepinephrine and, particular, with 123I-mIBG imaging. This technique demonstrates presence dysfunct...
Few reports have presented data and results on functional (i.e., nuclear medicine) imaging of paragangliomas and pheochromocytomas (PGLs/PHEOs) for von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) patients. Nuclear medicine localization modalities for chromaffin tumors can be specific or nonspecific. Specific methods make use of the expression of the human norepinephrine transporter (hNET) and vesicular monoamine trans...
Cardiac sympathetic neuronal degeneration accompanies mechanical overload heart failure. We hypothesized that sympathetic nerve and myocyte failure share a common etiology and that 123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) might provide a precise method of detecting failure in chronic mechanical overload. Our aim was to develop a method for the dynamic analysis of 123I-MIBG scintigrams which could yi...
Pheochromocytomas/paragangliomas(PHEOs/PGLs) are rare but treacherous catecholamine-producing tumors which, if overlooked or improperly treated, will almost invariably prove fatal. Patients with MEN2 PHEOs have a high incidence of paroxysmal attacks and a higher prevalence of hypertension and other cardiovascular problems than do patients with Von-Hippel-Lindau (VHL) PHEOs. Compared to measurem...
