摘要:

Wandering spleen is a rare condition which can be diagnosed with facility by conventional nuclear medicine imaging techniques.1We present one case in which generalized lymphosarcoma involving a wandering spleen was proved by percutaneous aspiration biopsy. Evaluation of a liver-spleen scan in which the normal splenic image is not definitely seen should include extension of the scan field to include the lower abdomen, because of the possibility of ectopic splenic position.

摘要:

Excretory urography is the standard examination used to evaluate structural abnormalities of the urinary tract in children. However, renal imaging offers advantages over excretory urography in the functional evaluation and in certain morphologic patterns of lymphoma.

摘要:

Two patients who presented with abnormal neurological findings and focal abnormalities on static brain imaging, were felt to have infarction in the distribution of the posterior cerebral artery. However, the posterior flow study delineated the cause of the abnormality as being a fenestrated anomaly of the sagittal sinus. The incidence of occlusive disease of the posterior cerebral artery, its clinical and scintigraphic presentation and the potential pitfalls for misinterpretation are reviewed.

摘要:

Infections with fungi of the class Phycomycetes result in distinctive tissue changes characterized by growth of hyphae in and around blood vessels, causing necrosis and hemorrhagic infarction of tissue. A brain scan on a patient with a phycomycotic intracranial aneurysm demonstrated ventricular visualization at a time when there was clinical and autopsy evidence of rupture of the aneurysm.

摘要:

A 19-year-old man was shot in the right chest about 2 cm below the nipple; bloody fluid was drained through a chest tube. Two days later sero-sanguineous fluid tinged with bile was seen to drain from the wound site.131I-rose bengal, injected intravenously, collected in the dome of the liver and drained into a collection bag placed over the wound site, thus identifying a hepatopleural-cutaneous fistula, which was confirmed at surgery.

摘要:

Two patients are presented who had radiogallium (67Ga-citrate) studies which revealed focal abdominal accumulations identified as the perirenal space. These localizations, to a specific anatomical site, were confirmed surgically. The distinguishing features of the perirenal space on radiogallium scans include the relatively vertical axis, downward conical extension, and sharp cut-off (“sparing”) medially to the midline.

摘要:

Cholescintigraphy was performed in 113 patients of whom 38 had normal gallbladders, 37 had acute cholecystitis and 38 had chronic cholecystitis. The radiopharmaceuticals used in the study were either99mTc-dimethyl acetanilide iminodiacetic acid or99mTc-paraisopropyl acetanilide iminodiacetic acid, both of which performed equally well. All patients with nonvisualized gallbladders had cholecystitis, but visualization did not exclude disease. The rapidity of obtaining the results (within one hour), the complete absence of untoward reactions to the radiopharmaceuticals, the much lower frequency of subtle or indeterminate results, the ability to render useful information in the presence of moderate jaundice and the lack of interference from overlying intestinal contents establishes these radionuclide agents as superior to both radiographic oral and intravenous cholangiography in the investigation of the acute abdomen.
