Changes in cardiac sympathetic nerve activity on 123I‐metaiodobenzylguanidine scintigraphy after MitraClip therapy

ESC Heart Failure, 2021
Aims In patients with heart failure, over‐activation of the cardiac sympathetic nerve (CSN) function is associated with severity of heart failure and worse outcome.

Renal sympathetic nerve activity after catheter-based renal denervation

EJNMMI Research, 2018
Background Catheter-based renal sympathetic denervation (RDN) has been considered a potential treatment for therapy resistant hypertension (RHT). However, in a randomized placebo-controlled trial, RDN did not lead to a substantial blood pressure (BP ...

The Pediatric Neuroblastoma: Application of MIBG Scintigraphy in Diagnosis, Staging, and Follow-up – Analysis of Three Cases

Swiss Journal of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine
Introduction: Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid tumor in children, accounting for 8-10% of all pediatric cancers. Accurate diagnosis and management rely on imaging modalities and biological markers such as elevated urinary ...

Complete remission of metastatic pheochromocytoma in 123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine scintigraphy after a single session of 131I-metaiodobenzylguanidine therapy: a case report

BMC Research Notes, 2017
Background Pheochromocytomas are rare neuroendocrine tumors, with a malignancy frequency of approximately 10%. The treatment of malignant pheochromocytoma is palliative, and the traditional management strategy has limited efficacy.

Neuroendocrine tumours of the head and neck: anatomical, functional and molecular imaging and contemporary management [PDF]

, 2013
Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) of the head and neck are rare neoplasms and can be of epithelial or non-epithelial differentiation. Although the natural history of NETs is variable, it is crucial to establish an early diagnosis of these tumours as they can

Nonmotor Symptoms in Patients with PARK2 Mutations

Parkinson's Disease, 2011
Decreased 123I-meta-iodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) uptake in MIBG myocardial scintigraphy, olfactory dysfunction, and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (RBD) are considered useful early indicators of Parkinson disease.

Cardiac MIBG Scintigraphy in Neurodegenerative Parkinsonism: Limitations in Clinical Practice

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
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.
