Esophageal Clearance in Laryngopharyngeal Reflux Disease: Correlation of Reflux Scintigraphy and 24-hour Impedance/pH in a Cohort of Refractory Symptomatic Patients
Objectives: The role of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in the aetiology of laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) is poorly understood and remains a controversial issue. The 24-hour impedance monitoring has shown promise...
Incidental Hydroxyapatite Ocular Implant Uptake on Bone Scan Done for Prostate Cancer Staging: Case Report and Brief Review
A 74-year-old man recently diagnosed with high-risk prostate cancer with high serum prostate specific antigen was referred to nuclear medicine for a technetium-99m-methylene diphosphonate (Tc-99m MDP) bone scan. On delay...
A Review of the History of Radioactive Iodine Theranostics: The Origin of Nuclear Ontology
Studies on the first years of radioactive iodine (RAI) use in thyroid diseases have focused on hyperthyroidism. Saul Hertz’s success with RAI in thyrotoxicosis fueled a seamless transition to Samuel Seidlin’s investigati...
Small-angle Compton Scatter Artifact in Tc-99m-IDA Hepatobiliary Scintigraphy Resulting in the Breast Overlying the Liver in Planar Dynamic Imaging
Compton scatter photons are generally considered problematic in nuclear medicine imaging. Therefore, efforts are being made to minimize the involvement of these photons by employing some special strategies in daily pract...
Correlation of SUVmax and Apparent Diffusion Coefficient Values Detected by Ga-68 PSMA PET/MRI in Primary Prostate Lesions and Their Significance in Lymph Node Metastasis: Preliminary Results of an On-going Study
Objectives: Gallium-68 (Ga-68) prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET) has been shown to be more accurate than multiparametric prostate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in detection o...
