Appropriate Use of Radionuclide Imaging
Cardiology in Review, 2012The growth of radionuclide imaging has raised well-founded concerns about potential overutilization. In response to the need for guidance, appropriate use criteria have been developed, which categorize specific clinical scenarios such as whether radionuclide imaging would be reasonable (appropriate) to perform, or whether the test would be performed ...

Cardiac radionuclide imaging to assess patients with heart failure.
Seminars in nuclear medicine, 2014Heart failure (HF) is a major problem, with a high prevalence, morbidity, mortality, and cost, and is expected to become more widespread. Radionuclide imaging currently plays an important role in evaluating these patients, with much potential for ...

Pitfalls and Limitations of Radionuclide Planar and Hybrid Bone Imaging.
Seminars in nuclear medicine, 2015The radionuclide (99m)Tc-MDP bone scan is one of the most commonly performed nuclear medicine studies and helps in the diagnosis of different pathologies relating to the musculoskeletal system. With its increasing utility in clinical practice, it becomes

Radionuclide Imaging in Renal Pseudotumors
Radiology, 1974Radionuclide renal imaging was employed in 43 patients in whom excretory urograms were suggestive, but not definite, of the presence of a renal mass. The results of the radionuclide method, performed with 197Hg-chlormerodrin as the scanning agent, were compared to those of arteriography. Radionuclide imaging correctly separated the real tumors from the

Radionuclide Imaging of Intestinal Infarction
Radiology, 1977An acute small bowel infarction in a 57-year-old male alcoholic produced a dense positive image on a gallium-67 citrate scan. Radionuclide imaging may be useful in the diagnosis of this condition, which has a high mortality rate and is not often diagnosed premortem.

Radionuclide imaging in histiocytosis X
Pediatric Radiology, 1987Radionuclide imaging (99mTc bone scans, 99mTc S colloid scans, 99mTc brain scans and 67gallium scans) and bone radiographs were done in 54 children with histiocytosis X. The results are discussed, compared with the literature and indications for the different nuclear medicine studies are given.

Radionuclide imaging of inflammation and infection in the acute care setting.
Seminars in nuclear medicine, 2013Although infection may be suggested by signs and symptoms such as fever, pain, general malaise, and abnormal laboratory results, imaging tests often are used to confirm its presence. Morphologic imaging tests identify structural alterations of tissues or
