[67 Ga-citrate scintigraphy as a determiner in the diagnosis of a subacute thyroiditis]. Revista espanola de medicina nuclear, 2001, Volume: 20, Issue:1 We present the case of a 41-year-old man admitted to the hospital with fever and toxic syndrome possibly having an oncological or infectious origin. A whole body scan with 67Ga-citrate showed an intense and diffuse radiotracer accumulation in the thyroid gland. The patient was re-evaluated and studied with other diagnostic tests including a thyroid 99mTc-pertechnetate scintigraphy and a thyroidal radioiodine uptake. A correct final diagnosis of painless subacute thyroiditis was made.

Unilateral gallium-67 uptake in primary tuberculosis of the major salivary glands. Clinical nuclear medicine, 1987, Volume: 12, Issue:8 Unilateral radionuclide accumulation in salivary glands is an uncommon finding on gallium scintigraphy. The differential diagnosis includes malignant tumors and inflammatory processes of these organs. Two cases of unilateral gallium uptake of the parotid and submandibular gland respectively, verified as solitary tuberculosis, are presented, together with the correlative findings of Tc-99m pertechnetate scintigraphy, sialography, and sonography. None of these imaging modalities is specific enough to provide pathognomonic signs for tuberculosis. When assessing unilateral gallium uptake of the salivary glands, one should be aware of the possibility of tuberculosis.

Unilateral gallium-67 uptake in primary tuberculosis of the major salivary glands.

Clinical nuclear medicine, 1987, Volume: 12, Issue:8

Unilateral radionuclide accumulation in salivary glands is an uncommon finding on gallium scintigraphy. The differential diagnosis includes malignant tumors and inflammatory processes of these organs. Two cases of unilateral gallium uptake of the parotid and submandibular gland respectively, verified as solitary tuberculosis, are presented, together with the correlative findings of Tc-99m pertechnetate scintigraphy, sialography, and sonography. None of these imaging modalities is specific enough to provide pathognomonic signs for tuberculosis. When assessing unilateral gallium uptake of the salivary glands, one should be aware of the possibility of tuberculosis.
