MIBG myocardial scintigraphy in progressive supranuclear palsy

Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2019
Meta-iodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) myocardial scintigraphy is an effective tool for distinguishing Parkinson's disease (PD) from other diseases accompanied by parkinsonism. Unlike other Parkinsonian diseases, in PD, MIBG accumulation in the heart tends to decrease. However, previous studies have reported that a decrease in MIBG accumulation also occurs in

MIBG Scintigraphy of a Patient with Pheochromocytoma on Labetalol Therapy

Clinical Nuclear Medicine, 1992
A patient with pheochromocytoma was studied by MIBG scintigraphy while on labetalol therapy, which has been reported to interfere with imaging. Serial imaging was performed at 2, 18, 25, and 90 hours to obtain time/activity curves. Blood samples were taken at each imaging study to determine activity counts.

The evolution in the use of MIBG scintigraphy in pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas

Hormones, 2013
Radioiodinated metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) was developed in the late 1970's, at the Michigan University Medical Center, for imaging of the adrenal medulla and its diseases. Soon after, MIBG was shown to depict a wide range of tumors of neural crest origin other than pheochromocytomas/paragangliomas (Pheo/PGL) with the result that its use rapidly ...

Positive I-123-MIBG-Scintigraphy in Osteosarcoma

Nuklearmedizin, 1998
SummaryI-123-MIBG scintigraphy has become a standard imaging technique in the detection of neuroendocrine or neurocrest derived tumors, especially neuroblastoma and pheochromocytoma. We report on a positive I-123-MIBG uptake in a pediatric osteosarcoma patient and demonstrate, that unusual results still occur with this established imaging method.

I-131 MIBG and Bone Scintigraphy in a Patient With MEN

Clinical Nuclear Medicine, 1995
The case of a patient with MEN is described. Emphasis is placed on the role of I-131 MIBG and bone scintigraphy as a part of the diagnostic and follow-up procedures.

111In-pentetreotide scintigraphy is superior to 123I-MIBG scintigraphy in the diagnosis and location of chemodectoma

Nuclear Medicine Communications, 1998
Chemodectomas, or glomus tumours, are unusual head and neck paragangliomas. A non-invasive imaging technique, 123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (123I-MIBG) scintigraphy, has long been used for the diagnosis of all types of paraganglioma. The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare classic 123I-MIBG scintigraphy with the more recent 111In-pentetreotide

FP‐CIT and MIBG scintigraphy in early Parkinson's disease

Movement Disorders, 2005
AbstractMethods provided by nuclear medicine may be helpful in diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (PD). For that purpose, the sensitivity of iodine‐123 metaiodobenzylguanidine ([123I]MIBG) scintigraphy and [123I]FP‐CIT single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) was studied in patients with PD onset (Hoehn and Yahr Stage 1).

MIBG scintigraphy in differential diagnosis of Parkinsonism: a meta-analysis

Clinical Autonomic Research, 2011
Differential diagnosis between Parkinson's disease (PD) and other Parkinsonism using clinical criteria or imaging methods is often difficult. The purpose of this study is to systematically review and meta-analyze published data about the diagnostic performance of myocardial innervation imaging using (123)I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) scintigraphy in

Visualization of a ganglioneuroma by means of scintigraphy with 131-I-MIBG

European Journal of Nuclear Medicine, 1986
A case report of ganglioneuroma secreting catecholamines is presented. The 131-I-MIBG gammagraphy was positive. We conclude that an uptake of 131-I-MIBG is not synonimous of a malignant tumour.
