99Tcm-MIBI uptake in green plants

Nuclear Medicine Communications, 1994
Uptake of 99mTcm-sestamibi by biological structures depends on delivery and concentration by electrochemical gradients through the biological membranes and can be simply studied using a green plant model in which photosynthesis tightly modulates water and solute regional flow.

Noncardiac uptake of technetium-99m MIBI

Seminars in Nuclear Medicine, 1994
A 74-YEAR-OLD spanish-speaking Peruvian woman underwent total thyroidectomy with bilateral median neck dissection in 1977 for follicular thyroid carcinoma. This was followed by Iodine-131 (1311) ablation for remnant thyroid tissue. In 1987, a 131I whole-body scan and a computed tomography scan of the chest confirmed lung metastasis as well as ...

Tc-99m MIBI Accumulation in Myositis Ossificans

Clinical Nuclear Medicine, 1998
A 52-year-old man who had a history of trauma after a fall 8 years before reported pain in the right knee for 5 or 6 weeks. Roentgenographs and three-phase bone scintigraphy were performed 1 month earlier and myositis ossificans was suspected. Because the patient had continuous knee pain, a Tc-99m MIBI scan was performed to evaluate a possible tumor in

Imaging of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma with Tc-99m MIBI

CLINICAL NUCLEAR MEDICINE, 1998
Differentiation of recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) from radiation fibrosis using conventional diagnostic methods can be difficult. The authors prospectively studied patients with NPC to determine the efficacy of Tc-99m MIBI scintigraphy in detecting the primary, residual, and recurrent tumors.The authors performed Tc-99m MIBI SPECT studies of ...

99mTc-MIBI myocardial perfusion imaging in myocarditis

Nuclear Medicine Communications, 2003
Myocardial perfusion imaging with technetium-99m-labelled methoxyisobutyl isonitrile single photon emission computed tomography (99mTc-MIBI SPECT) has proven to be an important clinical procedure in assessing the severity of myocardial ischaemia.

99mTc-MIBI in the evaluation of breast cancer biology

European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, 2004
A major area of interest in nuclear medicine is the scintigraphic in vivo evaluation of complex cellular processes involved in tumour growth, progression and response to treatment with the aim of defining the biological properties that may orient clinicians towards different adjustments of therapy in individual patients.

Sweat Glands Accumulate Tc-99m MIBI

Clinical Nuclear Medicine, 1996
Tc-99m MIBI, which was originally developed for myocardial perfusion studies, may also be used for depiction and characterization of tumors. Forty-one patients with suspected hyperparathyroidism were examined with Tc-99m MIBI to localize a parathyroid adenoma or hyperplasia. In 19 of these patients (46%), bilateral symmetrical activity corresponding to

Routine determination of radiochemical purity of 99mTc-MIBI

International Journal of Radiation Applications and Instrumentation. Part A. Applied Radiation and Isotopes, 1989
The manufacturer recommends that the radiochemical purity of 99mTc-MIBI be determined with alumina TLC plates developed in ethanol, but for routine use this is slow and requires care. After comparing a variety of systems, we obtained equivalent results using ITLC-SG strips developed with saline to determine [99mTc]pertechnetate and with acetone to ...

99mTc-MIBI Uptake in a Benign Thymic Cyst

Clinical Nuclear Medicine, 2019
Abstract A 34-year-old man with end-stage renal failure status post rejection of a deceased donor kidney transplant presented with bone pain in the setting of elevated serum parathyroid hormone and calcium levels. A 99mTc-MIBI SPECT/CT was performed before planned subtotal parathyroidectomy.

99mTc-MIBI in the Evaluation of Breast Cancer Biology

2008
Scintigraphic in vivo evaluation of complex cellular processes such as proliferation, apoptosis, receptor/ligand interactions, transport of substrates and metabolism of nutrients in human cancers is a wide and continuing evolving area of investigation in nuclear medicine (Denoyer et al. 2006; Been et al. 2004; Corsten et al. 2006; Weissleder 2006).
