99mTc-MDP Bone Scan and 18F-FDG PET/CT Imaging of Primary Hepatic Osteosarcoma

A 65-year-old man presented with abdominal bloating, pain, and nausea for 5 days. Abdominal CT revealed a heterogeneous mass with a large area of calcification, and rupture of the mass was seen around the capsulafibrosa. According to pathological examination after percutaneous puncture biopsy, the histopahological and immunohistochemical findings were suggestive of metastatic or primary hepatic osteosarcoma. Whole body bone scintigraphy demonstrated elevated 99mTc-MDP activity in hepatic mass, b...

PET-Derived Increased Inflammation in Large Vessels is linked to Relapse-Free Survival in Patients with Giant Cell Arteritis

Background  Despite anti-inflammatory treatment, patients with giant cell arteritis (GCA) experience relapse. We aimed to determine respective relapse predictors focusing on [18F]fluorodeoxyglucose ([18F]FDG)-PET-based parameters.

Material and Methods  21 therapy-naïve GCA patients received [18F]FDG-PET/CT. Patients were divided in two groups: those who relapsed during course of disease and those who did not. Median follow up was 15 months. [18F]FDG-PET/CT was analyzed for visual (PET vascular acti...

Myocardial Perfusion SPECT and ATTR imaging 2021 in Germany: Results of the 9th Survey

Aim This paper presents the results of the 9th survey of myocardial perfusion SPECT (MPS) from the reporting year 2021.

Methods 218 questionnaires (131 practices (PR), 58 hospitals (HO), 29 university hospitals (UH)) were evaluated. Results of the last survey 2018 are set in squared brackets.

Results MPS data from a total of 133,057 [145,930] patients (–8.8%) with 131,868 [143,707] stress and 106,546 [121,899] rest MPS were analysed. A comparison with official data revealed that 54% all MPS were reco...

[18F]-PSMA-1007-PET for evaluation of kidney function

Purpose Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is present in the proximal tubule cells of the kidneys. This results in high renal tracer uptake in PSMA-PET, which may contain useful information on renal function. As part of the evaluation for [177Lu]-PSMA therapies, patients undergo PSMA-PET and additional [99mTc]-mercapto-acetyltriglycine (MAG3) scintigraphy to assess renal function. Aim of this study was to evaluate estimation of renal function with [18F]-PSMA-1007-PET/CT (PSMA-PET) by compa...
