Gastroesophageal scintigraphy

Gastrointestinal Radiology, 1980
The technique of gastroesophageal scintigraphy was developed in order to quantitatively detect reflux from the stomach into the esophagus. The scintigraphic technique was compared to previous diagnostic tests including barium esophagography, fluoroscopy, endoscopy, esophageal biopsy, the acid perfusion test, esophageal manometry, and the acid reflux ...

Perfusion Scintigraphy in Diagnosis and Management of Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension.

Radiographics, 2019
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a life-threatening complication of acute pulmonary embolism (PE). Because the treatment of CTEPH is markedly different from that of other types of pulmonary hypertension, lung ventilation-perfusion

Parathyroid scintigraphy

Nuclear Medicine Communications, 2019
The purpose of this guideline is to assist specialists in Nuclear Medicine and Radionuclide Radiology in recommending, performing, interpreting and reporting the results of Parathyroid Scintigraphy. This guideline will assist individual departments to formulate their own local protocols.

123I-MIBG myocardial scintigraphy for the diagnosis of DLB: a multicentre 3-year follow-up study

Journal of Neurology Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2018
Background and purpose We previously reported the usefulness of iodine-123 metaiodobenzylguanidine (123I-MIBG) myocardial scintigraphy for differentiation of dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) from Alzheimer’s disease (AD) in a cross-sectional multicentre ...

Adrenal Gland Scintigraphy

Seminars in Nuclear Medicine, 2006
There is no question that high-resolution imaging techniques have revolutionized the approach to diagnostic imaging. Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging provide exquisite images of the adrenal glands and offer the best initial imaging approach in the evaluation of patients with suspected adrenal disease.

Contemporary adrenal scintigraphy

European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, 2006
High-resolution computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging have replaced scintigraphy as primary imaging modalities for the evaluation of adrenal diseases.Thin-slice CT, CT contrast washout studies and MR pulse sequences specifically designed to identify adrenal lipid content have radically changed the approach to anatomic imaging and

VENTILATION/PERFUSION SCINTIGRAPHY

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 2001
V/Q imaging is often very useful in evaluating patients in whom a PE is suspected. A normal scan result can be used to exclude embolism and a high likelihood ratio scan can be used to make the diagnosis of PE. Most patients with PE do not have high likelihood ratio scans; therefore, it is important to pursue this diagnosis in patients with intermediate

Efficient lung scintigraphy

Clinical Physiology, 2000
Lung scintigraphy is a first‐choice method to diagnose lung embolism. The clinical routine in most centres is a perfusion study complemented with a ventilation study when judged necessary. We describe a routine with ventilation scintigraphy preceding perfusion scintigraphy, which is completed within one hour.
