Intravascular large B-cell lymphoma with diffuse FDG uptake in the lung by 18FDG-PET/CT without chest CT findings.

abstract：:We investigated the uptake and washout of I-123-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) in neuronal (both intra- and extravesicular) and non-neuronal sites in the heart and its relationship to renal clearance. Acute renal failure was induced in rats by ligating the renal vessels, and the findings were compared with those of sh...
