18F-Fluciclovine-Avid Mediastinal Lymph Node Metastasis of Cutaneous Malignant Melanoma.

abstract：:A prospective study of eight patients with recent transmural myocardial infarction was performed using 99mTc-Sn-pyrophosphate and 99mTc-Sn-methylene diphosphonate in each patient. All pyrophosphate scans were strongly positive whereas the diphosphonate scan was strongly positive in only one case. We conclude that 99mT...
