Incidental Primary Intrathoracic Goiter: Dual-Isotope Scintigraphy and Early-MIBI SPECT/CT
Primary intrathoracic goiter is an uncommon congenital entity resulting from over decent ectopic thyroid tissue. As compared with secondary intrathoracic goiter, primary entities are discrete from orthotopic thyroid tissue and may lead to potentially ...

Surviving a stressful MIBI scan [PDF]
ABSTRACTDipyridamole/technetium sestamibi scans (more commonly known as MIBI scans, an acronym for methoxyisobutyl isonitrile) are used commonly for the diagnosis and risk stratification of coronary artery disease. Adverse events from MIBI scans are extremely rare.

Radioactive Parathyroid Adenomas on Sestamibi Scans: Low Parathyroid Hormone Secretory Potential and Large Volume [PDF]
Background We investigated the clinical characteristics of parathyroid adenomas according to radioactivity on 99mTc-methoxyisobutylisonitrile (99mTc-MIBI) single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) in primary ...
