Background Neuroblastoma (NB) and pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma (PHEO/PGL) are neuroendocrine tumors. Imaging of these neoplasms is performed by scintigraphy after injection of radiolabeled meta-iodobenzylguanidine (mIBG), a norepinephrine analog taken ...

Neuroblastoma Perinatal – Um Desafio para o Neonatologista [PDF]
O neuroblastoma é o tumor maligno mais frequente no período neonatal. O diagnóstico pré-natal tem aumentado devido à qualidade da ecografia obstétrica, que permite a deteção de formações de pequenas dimensões nas glândulas suprarrenais.

Cardiac 123I-MIBG scintigraphy in patients with drug induced parkinsonism [PDF]
Cardiac sympathetic dysfunction was investigated using 123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) myocardial scintigraphy in 20 patients with drug induced parkinsonism (DIP). The mean heart to mediastinum ratio was significantly greater in patients with DIP than in those with Parkinson's disease (mean (SD): 2.07 (0.39) v 1.28 (0.15 ...

Cardiac MIBG Scintigraphy in Neurodegenerative Parkinsonism: Limitations in Clinical Practice
Abstract Background Reduced cardiac uptake on 123Iodine‐metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) scintigraphy is a valuable tool for differentiating neurodegenerative parkinsonism but interpretation can be difficult due to comorbidities and drug‐tracer interactions.

I-Metaiodobenzylguanidine Myocardial Scintigraphy in Lewy Body-Related Disorders: A Literature Review [PDF]
Lewy body-related disorders are characterized by the presence of Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites, which have abnormal aggregations of α-synuclein in the nigral and extranigral areas, including in the heart.

We performed longitudinal evaluation using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and dopamine transporter single‐photon emission computed tomography (DAT‐SPECT) in a case of organophosphate‐induced toxic parkinsonism. Fluid‐attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) images showed bilateral striatal hyperintensity in the acute phase, followed by reduction of ...
