An ectopic kidney is often found inadvertently during CT, ultrasonography, MRI, or urologic physical examination. Ectopic kidneys usually occur in the pelvis. A pelvic ectopic kidney may be ...
Patient voids just before the acquisition begins. Technician ensures patient comfort and proper positioning, using additional supports to secure the position, as necessary. Dual-head γ-camera equipped ...
II. GOALS The goal of breast-specific γ-imaging performed with a high-resolution, small-field-of-view, breast-optimized γ-camera after intravenous administration of 99m Tc-sestamibi is to detect ...
In recent years, there has been an influx of new tracers into the field of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging. Most of those that have been Food and Drug Administration–approved for clinical ...
Pyelonephritis is a bacterial infection of the kidneys. The estimated annual incidence of pyelonephritis is 10.5 million to 25.9 million cases globally (1–3). It is more commonly seen in children, ...
The challenges of hybridizing PET and MRI as a simultaneous modality have been largely overcome in recent times. PET hybridized with MRI has seen the emergence of PET/MRI systems in the clinical ...
Diuretic renal scintigraphy plays a critical diagnostic role by providing a physiologic means for differentiating between obstructive and nonobstructive hydronephrosis and by assessing the function of ...
