Prospective comparison of (99m)Tc-GH SPECT/CT and (18)F-FDOPA PET/CT for detection of recurrent glioma: a pilot study.

abstract：:Perfusion lung scintigraphy using SPECT/CT is one mainstay in diagnosing pulmonary embolism. Although typically almost all tracer will be accumulated in the lung capillaries, occasionally abnormal uptake can be detected. As superior vena cava syndrome leads to aberrant blood flow, tracer injected to an arm vein might ...
