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 ...

(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; ...
The breast is highly radiation sensitive. The risk for radiation-induced cancers from imaging studies such as mammography has been of concern. Originally, 20 mCi Tc-99m sestamibi was used for Scintimammography; however, the dose has been reduced to as low as 8 mCi without loss of sensitivity...
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...
Technetium 99m sestamibi (MIBI), also known as 99m Tc-methoxy isobutyl isonitrile, is a radiopharmaceutical used to evaluate pathology within the cardiac, breast, and parathyroid tissues. Sestamibi is part of the radioactive diagnostic agents class of medications, characterized as a lipophilic cation...
