Amiodarone hydrochloride, which is used in life-threatening cardiac tachyarrhythmia, has been known to cause amiodarone induced pulmonary toxicity (AIPT) as a complication. In this study we aimed to investigate the clinical value of technetium-99m diethylene triamine penta-acetic acid (DTPA) aerosol lung scintigraphy in patients with AIPT in comparison with gallium-67 (Ga-67) scan. The study group included 26 cases, 7 patients with diagnosis of AIPT (Group A), 8 patients receiving amiodarone therapy but without AIPT (Group B) and 11 healthy subjects as a control group (Group C). All patients underwent Ga-67 and Tc-99m-DTPA aerosol scintigraphy in addition to various laboratory tests, Ga-67 scintigraphy was positive in 4 of 7 AIPT patients but quite normal in Group B. A positive correlation was found (r = 0.52, p < 0.05) between kep values determined by Tc-99m-DTPA aerosol scintigraphy and the cumulative dose of amiodarone. The mean kep values were 2.04% +/- 0.85%/min, 1.30% +/- 0.42%/min and 0.86% +/- 0.19%/min for groups A, B and C, respectively. The mean clearance rate of group A was significantly faster than that of normals (p < 0.0005) and group B (p = 0.028). In addition, there was a significant difference between groups B and C (p = 0.015). In conclusion, Ga-67 lung scintigraphy is a useful method for the detection of AIPT but Tc-99m-DTPA aerosol scintigraphy offers better results than Ga-67 scintigraphy. Early changes in Tc-99m-DTPA clearance may be observed in patients receiving amiodarone. The kep value in patients with AIPT is noticeably increased with respect to the control group. With its favorable physical properties, low cost, lower radiation burden and its ability to be used as an objective measure for the pulmonary clearance rate, Tc-99m-DTPA aerosol scintigraphy appears to be promising in patients receiving amiodarone therapy. 相似文献

Thyrotoxicosis due to functioning metastases in differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) is exceedingly rare. We report a case of follicular carcinoma in a 54-year-old manager, who presented with thyrotoxicosis, shortness of breath and lung metastases. Transbronchial biopsy of a pulmonary nodule demonstrated normal thyroid. This was interpreted as representing very well-differentiated thyroid cancer. CT, (131)I whole-body imaging and dosimetry is described following total thyroidectomy and repeated radioiodine administration (cumulative activity 34.6 GBq). The patient became asymptomatic with almost complete eradication of the pulmonary metastases. Potential complications of thyroid storm, bone marrow failure and pulmonary fibrosis following radioiodine are discussed, together with methods to minimise these risks. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to evaluate the possibility of pulmonary epithelial permeability damage in patients after hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) by 99mTc diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (99mTc-DTPA) aerosol inhalation lung scintigraphy. Twenty-five controls and 21 patients with normal chest X-rays and no cigarette smoking for at least 1 year were recruited for the study. 99mTc-DTPA aerosol inhalation lung scans were performed after 20 HBOT sessions in 21 patients with refractory osteomyelitis or diabetic foot. The HBOT with 100% oxygen at 2.5 atm absolute for 100 min was performed five times a week. Clearance rates (%/min) of 99mTc-DTPA aerosol in each lung field were calculated from the dynamic images for 30 min. Clearance rates of 99mTc-DTPA aerosol were compared between patients and controls by the unpaired t test. Thirteen patients who had 99mTc-DTPA aerosol lung scans before and after HBOT therapy studies were tested for statistical significance by using the paired t test. There was no statistically significant difference (P>0.05, unpaired t test) between patients and controls in every lung field. For the 13 patients who had 99mTc-DTPA aerosol studies both before and after 20 HBOT sessions, the results also showed no statistically significant difference (P>0.05, paired t test). It is concluded that there was no demonstrable pulmonary epithelial permeability change under current clinical HBOT protocol. 相似文献

Impaired lung epithelial permeability in hepatitis C virus antibody positive patients detected by 99mTc-DTPA aerosol scintigraphy 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection has been recently identified as an aetiological agent in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. The present study was designed to determine the pulmonary clearance rate of 99mTc-diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (99mTc-DTPA) in asymptomatic HCV antibody positive (HCV Ab+) patients and the role of 99mTc-DTPA aerosol scintigraphy in the early detection of lung involvement. Twenty-six non-smoker HCV Ab+ and HCV-RNA (+) patients (20 female, six male; aged 43+/-11 years), with no clinical pulmonary symptoms, and normal radiological findings, were studied. Thirty-one healthy non-smoker volunteers (24 female, seven male; aged 40+/-10 years) were taken as a control group. 99mTc-DTPA aerosol inhalation scintigraphy and pulmonary function tests were performed in all patients and in controls. On the basis of the scintigrams the percentage decline in activity per minute (Kep) was evaluated, which represented an accurate parameter of lung membrane permeability. The mean Kep values of healthy controls (0.78+/-0.13 for left lung, 0.79+/-0.14 for right lung) were significantly lower than HCV Ab+ patients (1.10+/-0.31 for left lung, 1.11+/-0.34 for right lung, P<0.001). But no significant change was observed in PFT (P>0.05). We conclude that subclinical alveolitis and/or interstitial lung disease may be present in patients with HCV Ab+, since it is known that an increase in the epithelial permeability of the lung is an early manifestation of interstitial disease. 相似文献

PURPOSE: Primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP) occurs subsequent to a disruption in the continuity of visceral pleura and escape of air into the pleural space. The cause of PSP is most often the rupture of subpleural blebs or bullae. It is usually difficult to detect evidence of pulmonary pathology. The purposes of the present study were (1) to investigate the changes of pulmonary alveolar epithelial permeability in patients with PSP as determined by Tc-99m DTPA aerosol lung scintigraphy, (2) to assess whether or not some differences exist between apical and basal parts of the lungs, and (3) to determine the relationship between the clearance rate of Tc-99m DTPA and the PFT results, the recurrence rate of PSP, and the percentage of pneumothorax in affected lung. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Thirteen PSP patients (two females, 11 males; mean age 32.5 +/- 11.8 years) with normal chest X-ray were studied. Thirteen healthy non-smoking volunteers (1 female, 12 males; mean age, 35.8 +/- 10 years) were selected as a control group. Tc-99m DTPA aerosol lung scintigraphy and PFT were performed in all patients and controls. Clearance rates (%/min) of Tc-99m DTPA aerosol in right and left lung field, and apical and basal parts of each lung were calculated from dynamic images for 15 min. RESULTS: There was no significant difference (p > 0.05) between patients and controls, or between apical and basal parts of each lung. No correlation was found between the clearance rate of Tc-99m DTPA and PFT results, the recurrence rate of PSP, or the percentage of pneumothorax. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrates that pulmonary epithelial permeability is not altered in PSP patients; the clearance rate of Tc-99m DTPA shows no difference between apical and basal parts of each lung. 相似文献

We have investigated Technetium 99m erythromycin lactobionate (Tc 99m EL) clearance from the lungs after inhalation, in the presence of an alveolitis. Eighteen patients (6 sarcoidosis, 7 idiopathic fibrosis, and 5 miliary tuberculosis) were imaged after the patients inhaled 1,110 MBq of Tc 99m EL. Clearance half time for the first 45 min, for 24 h, and retention at 24 h correlated with percentage of lymphocytes in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BAL) (r = .729, r = .883, and r = .826, respectively). There was a positive correlation between peripheral penetration (PP) and forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) (r = .806) and forced vital capacity (FVC) (r = .781). Retention was more marked in sarcoidosis compared with tuberculosis (0.025 < p < or = 0.05). Radioaerosol lung imaging may reflect the pulmonary function impairment in parenchymal lung diseases. Retention of Tc 99m EL may be related to number of BAL cells or presence of a lymphocytic alveolitis. Long residency time of Tc 99m EL in the lungs implies that erythromycin can also be administered by inhalation for therapeutic purposes. 相似文献

Relationship between cumulative radiation dose and salivary gland uptake associated with radioiodine therapy of thyroid cancer 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Jentzen W Schneider E Freudenberg L Eising EG Görges R Müller SP Brandau W Bockisch A 《Nuclear medicine communications》2006,27(8):669-676
AIM: To estimate the individual absorbed dose to the parotid and submandibular salivary glands in radioiodine therapy and its dependence from the previous cumulative therapy. METHODS: Fifty-five patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma after thyroidectomy received 1-21 GBq (131)I using single activities of 1-6 GBq. The patients were stratified according to the cumulative activities into low-activity (1-2 GBq), middle-activity (3-7 GBq), and high-activity groups (9-21 GBq). The time-activity curves over the respective salivary glands were derived from multiple static calibrated images measured for each patient up to 48 h after ingestion of the radioiodine therapy capsule with a gamma camera. Manually drawn regions of interests were used to determine the background activities and the activities arising from the salivary glands. The gland volumes were determined by ultrasonography using appropriate volume models. RESULTS: The median absorbed dose per administered activity of each single parotid and submandibular gland was about 0.15 Gy.GBq (range, 0.1-0.3 Gy.GBq(-1)) and 0.48 Gy.GBq(-1) (range, 0.2-1.2 Gy.GBq(-1)), respectively. The maximum uptake of both gland types was significantly lower for the high-activity than for the low-activity groups and correlated with the mean cumulative administered activity of the activity groups. CONCLUSION: The iodine uptake of salivary glands is significantly reduced, whereas the absorbed dose per administered (131)I activity was not significantly decreased during the course of therapy. Comparing the well-known dose-effect relationships in external radiation therapy, the absorbed dose per administered (131)I activity is too low to induce comparable radiation damage, suggesting an inhomogeneous distribution of (131)I in human salivary glands. 相似文献

Initial bone metastases in patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma are rare, especially in younger patients. Long duration of therapy and high activities of radioiodine are often necessary to induce remission of metastatic disease. The curative potential of radioiodine therapy, in particular in younger patients, has not yet been determined. In this retrospective study we evaluated the therapeutic outcome, total radioiodine activities and associated side-effects in 107 patients with initial bone metastases. Eight of the 107 patients were younger than 45 (37.5+/-7.3) years, and were classified as group 1 (stage II, "low risk", WHO classification). The remaining 99 patients were older than 45 (64.1+/-9.5) years, and formed group 2 (stage IV, "high risk", WHO classification). Total or partial remission was more frequently achieved in group 1 than in group 2 (62.5% vs 49.5%). Lower activities were needed in group 1 (18.89+/-15.08 GBq vs 41.97+/-31.25 GBq), and there were less marked alterations in the blood count in this group. In group 1, blood count alterations reached only grade I or II (WHO classification), whereas grade III and grade IV alterations as well as acute leukaemia were observed in group 2. In group 1, complete remission was achieved with radioiodine therapy (11.1 GBq) in three out of four patients with < or =3 bone metastases. Additional pulmonary metastases (present in 44 out of 107 patients) did not influence prognosis. We conclude that initial bone metastases in differentiated thyroid carcinoma can be treated with curative intent by means of radioiodine therapy, and that this approach has a particularly realistic chance of success in younger patients and those with a small number of metastases. 相似文献

AIM: To provide a comprehensive overview with regard to the hospitalization/discharge planning and nursing staff requirements for the management of patients treated with radioiodine for differentiated thyroid carcinoma. METHODS: A statistical analysis of the fast clearance phase of 131I was performed in 265 hospitalized patients treated after total thyroidectomy with fixed doses ranging from 2590 to 9250 MBq. RESULTS: Two hundred and twenty-five cases were post-surgical ablation treatments and 40 cases were follow-up treatments. The 131I clearance was studied during hospitalization of 2-4 days. No clearance differences were found between the two groups. The median value of the biological half-time (T1/2bio) was 0.65 days, with a variability range of 0.30-2.03 days. A statistical model for the distribution of T(1/2bio) was reported. Some patients on maintenance haemodialysis were also studied, with T(1/2bio) values ranging from 1.6 to 2.6 days. The weekly cumulative dose to personnel from external exposure, corresponding to the 95th percentile, ranged from 0.1 mSv per GBq of administered activity (mSv x GBq(-1)) with a totally ambulant patient to 5.4 mSv . GBq with a totally helpless patient. With patients on maintenance haemodialysis, these values could increase from 1.2 to 1.7 times. The cumulative dose to close relatives was also estimated. The hospitalization times associated with 75% and 95% probabilities of patient discharge were calculated by varying the residual activity limit from 100 to 800 MBq. Finally, using the median T(1/2bio), personnel requirements were evaluated. With totally ambulant and semi-ambulant patients, about 0.5 and 1.0 personnel units per GBq of weekly administered activity were needed so as not to exceed an annual planning dose of 6 mSv per year. The treatment of patients with higher degrees of dependency was impractical. CONCLUSIONS: On the basis of statistical analysis, a better organization of in-patient treatment may be obtained, as well as more accurate preliminary evaluations of the cumulative doses to nursing staff and attending personnel, for the management of patients treated with radioiodine for differentiated thyroid carcinoma. 相似文献

Iodine-131 uptake in inflammatory lung disease: a potential pitfall in treatment of thyroid carcinoma 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A mixed differentiated thyroid carcinoma was found in a small asymptomatic nodule in a 44-yr-old woman with recurrent chest infections and bronchiectasis. After total thyroidectomy and 162 mCi (6 GBq) radioiodine ablation there was uptake in the thyroid remnant and in both lungs, interpreted as lung metastases. In 2 years she received further three 162 mCi (6 GBq) doses of 131I, as scans showed very similar lung activity. Another scan, during thyroxin suppression, showed again activity in the lungs. A 47-yr-old male patient with similar respiratory disease and no history of thyroid disorder volunteered to undergo radioiodine scan while on triiodothyronine suppression. His scan, too, showed concentration in the lungs. The female patient died 7 years after the diagnosis of lung thyroid metastases was made. No metastasis was found at autopsy. Radioiodine lung uptake may occur in patients with chronic inflammatory lung disease, presenting a potential diagnostic pitfall in patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma. 相似文献
