We report the use of technetium-99m sestamibi (MIBI) in a patient with multiple myeloma (MM) undergoing peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplantation. MIBI is a radionuclide agent that is preferentially taken up by malignant tumors. Plain radiographs in a MM patient, taken prior to PBSC ...
Technetium99m (Tc) sestamibi (mibi) has been proposed as an alternative to the standard radionuclide imaging technique of thallium 201 chloride- 99m Tc pertechnetate subtraction scan (TTS) in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism. In the present study, mibi was evaluated as an alternative to ...
All patients had a baseline rest and exercise Tc 99m Sestamibi scan and were followed for 13.2 ± 4.9 months (range: 1 to 24 months). Images were correlated with the occurrence of a cardiac event (cardiac death or non-fatal myocardial infarction). In this trial as summarized in Table 7,...

We aimed in this investigation to explore the role of Technetium-99m sestamibi (99mTc MIBI) scintigraphy in the pre-operative assessment of refractory hyperparathyroidism in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Methods: Dual-phase 99mTc MIBI parathyroid scintigraphy was performed for 23 patients with ESRD who ...
C, The technetium Tc 99m sodium pertechnetate scan shows neither activity in the region of the adenoma nor in the carcinoma (circles). Figure 2. View LargeDownload A 3-dimensional volume rendered technetium Tc 99m sestamibi scintigraphic image from the same patient as in Figure 1 shows ...
(tɛkˈniːʃɪəm) n (Elements & Compounds) a silvery-grey metallic element, artificially produced by bombardment of molybdenum by deuterons: used to inhibit corrosion in steel. The radioisotopetechnetium-99m, with a half-life of six hours, is used in radiotherapy. Symbol: Tc; ...
Different patterns of technetium-99m sestamibi uptake in multiple myeloma Technetium-99m 2-methoxyisobutylisonitrile (99mTc-MIBI) has been proposed as a potential tracer in patients with multiple myeloma (MM). The aims of this st... L Pace,L Catalano,AM Pinto,... - 《Eur J Nucl Med》 ...
原发性副甲状腺机能亢进症(hyperparathyroidisim,HPT)最常见的病因是由单一的副甲状腺腺瘤所引起,使用MIBI scan已经成为近年来原发性HPT手术前定位的最佳利器.本病例为一53岁女性,因左边颈部肿块,全身倦怠,体重减轻及全身关节疼痛入院检查,发现血钙高达19.8mg/dL,副甲状腺素浓度(iPTH)为1009pg/mL.诊断为原发性HPT并...
