Cardiac Applications of 123I-mIBG Imaging

Seminars in Nuclear Medicine, 2011
Cardiac autonomic innervation plays a key role in maintaining hemodynamic and electrophysiologic harmony. Cardiac sympathetic function is adversely altered in many disease states, such as congestive heart failure, myocardial ischemia, and diabetes. (123)I-mIBG, a sympathetic neurotransmitter radionuclide analog, aids in the detection of sympathetic ...

123I MIBG Appearance of Severe Renal Artery Stenosis

Clinical Nuclear Medicine, 2014
We describe a patient with labile hypertension and elevated metanephrines who underwent 123Iodine metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) for the detection of a possible paraganglioma. The scan revealed markedly abnormal diffusely increased activity in the right renal parenchyma.

Dynamic SPET parameters of 123I-MIBG cardiac imaging

Nuclear Medicine Communications, 1999
Early dynamic and late 123I-MIBG SPET studies were performed to investigate several parameters used to distinguish the characteristics of various cardiac disorders. Forty-six individuals (34 non-diabetic, 12 diabetic) with or without heart disease were included in the study.

123I-MIBG SPECT of Merkel cell carcinoma.

The British Journal of Radiology, 1998
131I-MIBG may be useful in the detection of neuroendocrine tumours. Merkel cell carcinoma is a neuroendocrine tumour of the skin. We evaluated a patient with Merkel cell carcinoma using 123I-MIBG single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) which demonstrated tumour accumulation of the radiotracer in the right eyelid.

123I-MIBG myocardial scintigraphy in diabetic patients

Nuclear Medicine Communications, 1996
The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between autonomic nerve dysfunction and myocardial uptake of 123I-meta-iodobenzyl guanidine (MIBG) in patients with diabetes mellitus. Twenty-two non-insulin-dependent diabetic patients, 9 with autonomic neuropathy [ANP(+)] and 13 without autonomic neuropathy [ANP(-)], and 8 controls were ...

Catecholamines influence myocardial 123I MIBG uptake in neuroblastoma patients

Nuklearmedizin, 2013
SummaryAim: Cardiac 123I metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) imaging can be influenced by several factors. We evaluated the relationship between catecholamine measurements and cardiac 123I MIBG uptake in neuroblastoma patients. Patients, methods: 30 neuroblastoma patients were retrospectively assessed on cardiac 123I MIBG uptake and urinary catecholamine ...

Value of 123I-MIBG Scintigraphy in Paraganglioma.

Neuroendocrinology, 2010
The aim of the study was to evaluate the current role of (123)I-MIBG scintigraphy in the detection and follow-up of patients with paragangliomas.117 patients were referred for diagnostic (123)I-MIBG scintigraphy based on a strong clinical suspicion, positive familial history and genetic testing, or for follow-up of paragangliomas.(123)I-MIBG images ...

Influence of specific activity on myocardial uptake of 123I-mIBG in rats

Nuclear Medicine Communications, 1988
Heart and lung uptake of 123I-mIBG was studied in rats 1 h after injection as a function of specific activity (mCi mg-1) and the total loading dose (microgram kg-1) of labelled compound. Absolute lung uptake of the tracer was dependent upon specific activity, declining as the loading dose increased from 0.15 to 4300 micrograms kg-1. Uptake in the total

[123I-MIBG scintigraphy in patients with neuroblastoma].

Kaku igaku. The Japanese journal of nuclear medicine, 1994
123I-meta-iodobenzylguanidine (123I-MIBG) scintigraphy was performed in 9 patients who were suspected to have a neuroblastoma. Positive images were obtained in 4 patients who had a neuroblastoma. Negative images were obtained in 5 patients who did not have a neuroblastoma.
