Pyrophosphate retention by previously irradiated renal tissue.
In 3 patients, each of whom had previously had part of one kidney included within the field during radiation therapy, whole-body bone imaging using 99mTc-pyrophosphate showed increased activity in the irradiated renal segment. Possible mechanisms of such renal uptake are discussed. Topics: Adolescent; Adult; Bone and Bones; Diphosphates; Female; Humans; Kidney; Male; Radionuclide Imaging; Technetium; Thoracic Neoplasms | 1979 |
[A comparison of radiology and scanning with 99mTc-pyrophosphate in 125 patients with tumours (author's transl)].
Various portions of the skeleton were examined in 125 patients both radiologically and by scanning, using 99mTc-pyrophosphate. The results are compared, particular attention being paid to errors in diagnosis. The figures show that scans represent a valuable additional form of examination for detecting tumours which have not been found radiologically. The importance of serial observations is discussed.
