摘要:

The case reported illustrates the value of the spleen scan, in conjunction with arteriography, in diagnosing splenic involvement by pancreatic pseudocyst. Of additional interest is the demonstration postoperatively of return of splenic activity.

摘要:

99mTc-pertechnetate cardioangiograms were performed in conjunction with precordial99mTc-pyrophosphate scintigrams in 75 patients with suspected acute myocardial infarcts. The cardioangiograms revealed structural or hemodynamic abnormalities in 23 patients that were not evident on the99mTc-pyrophosphate images. In eight cases the results were unexpected prior to scintigraphy. Cardioangiograms also proved helpful in localizing the site of infarction and in ruling out false-positive results in five patients. The role of radionuclide cardioangiography as an adjunct to acute infarct scintigraphy warrants further investigation.

摘要:

Scintigraphic findings in two patients with pancreatic pseudocysts are discussed. In both patients a photon-deficient area in the region of the pseudocyst was found in both the75Se-selenomethionine and99mTc-pertechnetate scintiscans. In one patient aortic displacement by the mass was suggested. The99mTc-pertechnetate scans afforded readier recognition of photon-deficient areas by virtue of the greater photon flux.

摘要:

A total of 981 consecutive thyroid uptake studies with99mTc-Pertechnetate are reviewed. Of these, 258 patients underwent measurement of both99mTc and131I uptake. An accuracy rate of greater than 90% based on correlation with the131I values as well as clinical and laboratory information clearly establishes the simplified99mTc uptake study as a reliable index of thyroid function.

摘要:

Forty patients who were diagnosed to have either carcinoma of the breast, lung, or suspected to have primary adrenal pathology were studies utilizing131I-iodocholesterol gamma ray scintigraphy to evaluate the efficacy of this radiopharmaceutical in detecting adrenal disease process. Direct examination of the adrenals was possible in 20 patients who underwent laparotomy, and their surgical and/or histopathological findings were compared to that of adrenal scans. There was complete correlation in all these patients except for 2 who had microscopic disease in their adrenals.

摘要:

It is well recognized that there are many conditions which may simulate a subdural hematoma on static brain scintiphotographs. A case is presented where brain atrophy simulated bilateral subdural hematomas on scintiangiograms, static scintiphotographs and cerebral angiography. This study demonstrates that there are pitfalls in the evaluation of scintiangiograms and illustrates another cause of crescentric activity.

摘要:

Two cases of false interpretation of abnormal myocardial scan with99mTc-pyrophosphate by calcified costal cartilage in the precorial region are presented. This communication reports the difficulty in correctly interpreting positive99mTc-pyrophosphate myocardial scan in a case with calcified costal cartilages in the presence of abnormal electrocardiographic and enzymatic changes. Recent reports of false positive myocardial scans are briefly reviewed.
