Pelioid-type hepatocellular carcinoma masquerading as a hepatic hemangioma on technetium-99m red blood cell scintigraphy.

Abstract:

:Technetium-99m red blood cell (RBC) scintigraphy is a very specific method to differentiate a hemangioma from other hepatic masses. The authors report a case of hepatocellular carcinoma that showed a focal area of increased uptake on Tc-99m RBC SPECT in a 60-year-old man. Dynamic computed tomography and angiography revealed features of both hemangioma and hepatocellular carcinoma. Pathologic examination showed that the portion of the hepatocellular carcinoma that showed increased uptake on Tc-99m RBC scintigraphy had peliosis, which is the likely cause of the radiotracer avidity.

  • Tc-99m sestamibi scintigraphy in multiple myeloma.

    abstract::Tc-99m sestamibi imaging was performed in two patients with multiple myeloma. Focal areas of increased uptake in one patient and diffuse skeletal uptake in the second patient were found. Tc-99m sestamibi appears to identify bone marrow and osteolytic involvement in multiple myeloma. ...
