Semi-quantitative segmental perfusion scoring in myocardial perfusion SPECT: visual vs. automated analysis
(Research Center for Nuclear Medicine (Tehran University of Medical Sciences), 2014-06-01)Introduction: It is recommended that the physician apply at least a semi-quantitative segmental scoring system in myocardial perfusion SPECT. We aimed to assess the agreement between automated semi-quantitative analysis ...

High negative predictive value of workload ≥7 METS on exercise testing in patients with normal gated myocardial perfusion imaging: Was imaging really required?
(Research Center for Nuclear Medicine (Tehran University of Medical Sciences), 2014-06-01)Introduction: Good functional capacity has a high negative predictive value (NPV) in patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) similar to a normal gated myocardial perfusion imaging (GMPI). Aim of this ...

Rare case of squamous cell carcinoma of buccal mucosa metastasizing to interventricular septum in a young adult detected by 18F-FDG PET-CT
(Research Center for Nuclear Medicine (Tehran University of Medical Sciences), 2014-06-01)Metastatic tumors to the heart unlike primary cardiac tumors are not rare. Despite its frequency, cardiac metastasis is commonly detected only during autopsy as the symptoms of disseminated metastasis prevail over symptoms ...

Rare ocular and skin lesions of Marginal Zone Lymphoma detected by 18F-FDG PET/CT
(Research Center for Nuclear Medicine (Tehran University of Medical Sciences), 2014-06-01)We report a case of a 75-year old man that came at hematologist's attention for lymphoma evaluation due to axillary lymph node enlargement and fever. Thorax, abdomen and pelvis Contrast-Enhanced Computed Tomography (CECT) ...

Review of transmission scanning configurations in cardiac SPECT
(Research Center for Nuclear Medicine (Tehran University of Medical Sciences), 2014-06-01)The diagnostic accuracy of single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is profoundly influenced by attenuation phenomenon. Soft tissue attenuation degrades cardiac SPECT image quality, thereby decreasing the possibility ...

The value of lateral lymphoscintigraphy images of the pelvis for gynecological cancers: Are they necessary?
(Research Center for Nuclear Medicine (Tehran University of Medical Sciences), 2014-06-01)Introduction: In the current study we evaluated the incremental value of lateral pelvic lymphoscintigraphy imaging of endometrial or cervical cancer patients who underwent sentinel node mapping. Methods: Operable endometrial ...

Radiosynthesis and evaluation of ytterbium-175 labeled bleomycin as therepeutic agent
(Research Center for Nuclear Medicine (Tehran University of Medical Sciences), 2014-06-01)Introduction: Bleomycins are DNA-binding biomolecules, which can be used as targeted therapy carriers when labeled with particle-emitters such as Yb-175. In this work the development of Yb-175 bleomycin (175Yb-BLM) has ...

Assessment of the individual renal function in chronic unilateral renal obstruction using functional CT as compared to 99mTc-DTPA renal scan
(Research Center for Nuclear Medicine (Tehran University of Medical Sciences), 2014-06-01)Introduction: The selection of optimal treatment of obstructive nephrouropathy requires information about the functional status of each kidney. Nuclear renal scanning objectively measure differential renal function, ...
