Hepatobiliary Scintigraphy in 2014 [PDF]
Cholescintigraphy with (99m)Tc-hepatobiliary radiopharmaceuticals has been an important, clinically useful diagnostic imaging study for almost 4 decades. It continues to be in much clinical demand; however, the indications, methodology, and interpretative criteria have evolved over the years.

Factors modulating 99mTc‐MAA planar lung dosimetry for 90Y radioembolization
Abstract Purpose To investigate the accuracy and biases of predicted lung shunt fraction (LSF) and lung dose (LD) calculations via 99mTc‐macro‐aggregated albumin (99mTc‐MAA) planar imaging for treatment planning of 90Y‐microsphere radioembolization.

Abstract Background Ultrasonography (US) and 99mTechnetium‐sestamibi scintigraphy (99mTc‐MIBI) are currently first‐line imaging modalities to localize parathyroid adenomas with sensitivities of 80% and 84%, respectively. Therefore, finding other modalities to further improve the diagnostic accuracy for preoperative localization is critically needed ...

For patients with invasive adenocarcinoma 1cm in whom anatomical resection is not feasible, wedge resection could provide similar oncological effect when tumor is lepidic predominant or acinar predominant. Abstract Purpose We sought to analyze the prognostic significance of lung adenocarcinoma classification for patients with pathological N0 (pN0) lung

Lung Scintigraphy in COPD [PDF]
Ventilation-perfusion scintigraphy is a functional imaging biomarker that has the potential of captivating the heterogeneity of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It specifically images the distribution of ventilation and perfusion within the lungs, which is a critical pathophysiological component of COPD.

Atrial amyloidosis: mechanisms and clinical manifestations
Atrial amyloidosis: pathophysiology and clinical manifestations. Atrial amyloidosis can manifest as part of a systemic disorder (as in amyloid light‐chain [AL] or transthyretin [ATTR] amyloidosis), or be isolated (in the form due to atrial natriuretic type [ANP] accumulation); this last form is often associated with permanent or persistent atrial ...

European multicentre study on outcome of surgery for sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism
Some 5861 patients undergoing first‐time surgery for sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism were registered in the Eurocrine® database between 2015 and 2018. The use of intraoperative parathyroid hormone measurement decreased the risk of conversion and persistent hypercalcaemia.
