Incidental Tc-99m Methylene Diphosphonate Uptake in an Active Thyroid Nodule
Tc-99m-methylene diphosphonate (MDP) whole body scintigraphy is the method of choice for detection of metastatic bone diseases. It is primarily used to help diagnose various bone-related conditions such as primary or met...
Thyroid Incidentalomas on 18F-FDG PET/CT: Clinical Significance and Controversies
Objective: The purpose of the current study is to examine the incidence and clinical significance of unexpected focal uptake of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) on positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT...
Super Scan Caused by Parathyroid Carcinoma Observed Both in 18F-FDG PET/CT Scan and Tc-99m MDP Bone Scintigraphy
Super scan is a well-known finding described in skeletal scintigraphy characterized by uniform symmetrically increased radiopharmaceutical uptake by bones and consequently diminished renal parenchymal activity. Sy et al....
Striking Visualization of Diffuse Congenital Nesidioblastosis on Ga-68 DOTATATE PET/CT
“Nesidioblastosis”, later renamed as “persistent hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia of infancy” presents as either focal or diffuse neo-differentiation of pancreatic Langerhans islet cells from the ductal epithelium. Differen...
Sphenoid Bone Fibrous Dysplasia Detected Incidentally on Bone Scintigraphy by the Contribution of SPECT/CT Hybrid Imaging
Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a benign fibroosseous bone disorder. It has poliostotic and monostotic patterns. Monostotic FD is frequently asymptomatic and is usually discovered incidentally by radiologic imaging performed f...
