Thyroid carcinoma in childhood and adolescence is uncommon because of the slow progression disease standard treatment controversial. The aim this study was to perform a retrospective analysis results for differentiated thyroid age group treated our clinic.From August 1988 February 2001, 15 patients between ages 8 21 years (average 16.8) were at Akdeniz University Medical School Departments General Pediatric Surgery. included 10 (67%) females 5 (33%) males. None had previous positive history...
Objective: Bone scintigraphy is a highly sensitive method in the evaluation of sacroiliitis.Aim this study firstly to evaluate interobserver variation partial and whole sacroiliac indicis, secondly investigation clinical importance these indicis diagnosis sacroiliitis.Methods: Fourty-six subjects (24 female: 35.4±11.9;22 male: 43.1±12.4)without sacroiliitis 45 with low back pain (33 43.3±11.5,11 35.5±17.2) were included study.For right (R) left (L) indices (WSI) irregular region interest...
Purpose The aim of this study was to investigate quantitatively the volume effect stomach on prevention intestinal artifacts in rest phase same-day exercise–rest Tc-99m tetrofosmin myocardial perfusion scintigraphy. Materials and Methods performed 81 consecutive patients (43 men, 38 women; mean age, 57 ± 9 years) who were referred for routine SPECT imaging with normal scintigrams or completely inferior wall visual assessment images. Group A (control group, n = 41) group B (n 40) given 200 ml...
The role of imaging studies in the evaluation patients with sacroiliitis is controversial. We aimed to evaluate nanocolloid and bone scintigraphy investigate clinical relevance findings. Thirty-two clinically sacroiliac disease (nine females, 23 males, aged 22-47 years) underwent scintigraphic radiographic examinations all were performed within 2 weeks. Twenty-five subjects also included as a control group (10 15 20-51 for quantitative analysis scan. was done by using regions interest drawn...
A 30-year-old woman underwent two operations for multinodular goiter and follicular thyroid carcinoma. The residual tissue was ablated by I-131 therapy. After 7 years of follow-up, Tc-99m MIBI scintigraphy were performed, because her serum thyroglobulin level much higher compared with the control analysis performed in sixth year. showed pathologic accumulation, which could be consistent a local recurrence, whereas results negative. locally recurring carcinoma resected using gamma probe MIBI....
To evaluate the results of endoscopic transnasal dacryocystorhinostomy (ETDCR) combined with bicanalicular silicone tube intubation (BSTI) performed in 49 patients nasolacrimal canal obstructions secondary to chronic dacryocystitis.ETDCR BSTI was applied as a primary procedure 47 cases, and 2 cases. All underwent dacryocystography, 41 radionuclide dacryoscintigraphy before surgery. Silicone tubes were left place for about 6.2 months. The patency lacrimal passages controlled clinical...
A 50-year-old woman who had surgery 4 years earlier for papillary carcinoma of the thyroid received 30 mCi I-131 ablation. Follow-up imaging showed successful gland ablation; however, persistent activity was present in mediastinum corresponding to esophageal projection. The patient been experiencing dysphagia approximately 10 years. Esophageal scintigraphy delayed transit time. contrast esophagogram a rat tail deformity with narrowing most marked at gastroesophageal junction and dilatation...
In order to investigate cerebral perfusion changes induced by neuroleptic drugs, we performed 99Tcm hexamethyl propyleneamine oxime (HMPAO) single-photon emission computed tomography (SPET). Fifteen patients (nine drug naive, six non-naive) diagnosed using the DSM-III-R criteria, and 10 right-handed age sex matched normal volunteers were included in this study. The SPET study was with 740 MBq 99Tcm-HMPAO a 128×128 matrix, 30 s/frame for total 64 view over 360° before after 1 month of...
A 62-year-old man was wheezing and had chest pain for 2 months. He a history of bilateral ear swelling, 3 years. Physical examination showed edematous red auricles saddle nose deformity. Computerized tomography tracheal calcifications tracheobronchial narrowing observed on bronchoscopy. Tc-99m MDP bone scan performed diffusely increased uptake in the costochondral junctions. The biopsy relapsing polychondritis. underwent prednisolone therapy months his symptoms scintigraphic findings were...
99Tcm-dextran was evaluated as a lymphoscintigraphic agent in 10 normal volunteers and 24 patients with breast cancer. (0.5–1 mCi) volume of 0.1–0.2 ml injected into the posterior rectus sheath subcostal site on one side. Scintigrams were obtained at 2–2.5 h after injection repeated other The final image taken 4.5–5 first injection. distribution lymph nodes anatomical variations scintigraphic images determined subjects. In patient group, eight scintigrams pathological rest normal. 25 women...
SUMMARY 1. Hypertension and renal failure are the two most common severe complications due to cyclosporine A (CsA) therapy after transplantation. To determine whether an in vivo treatment with pentoxifylline (PTX) can prevent toxic effects of CsA, three groups rats were studied. 2. The first group (n = 11) received daily injections CsA (15 mg/kg, i.m.) PTX (45 i.p., b.i.d.), second was treated only third served as control (vehicle treatment). 3. Whole blood levels similar + alone groups....
Abstract Although 99m Tc red blood cell (RBC) scintigraphy is a very specific method to differentiate hemangioma from other hepatic masses, several cases of false-positive RBC have been previously reported throughout the literature. We report an additional case that presented in 15-month-old boy with hepatoblastoma showing increased labeled activity mimicking hemangioma.
The optically stimulated luminescence (OSL-BeO) dosemeter is increasingly being used as a dosimetric technique in various fields such medical dosimetry.According to our fixed dose protocol, the activities of 3.7-7.4GBq I-131 source for thyroid carcinoma therapy.The house calibration process usage OSL's at hospital was arranged according encapsulated I-131.The measurement point planned three different radial distances from free air.The dose-rate done by Geiger-Muller (GM), and then pieces OSL...
