  • Title: Thallium-201 scintigraphy in malignant mesothelioma.
    Author: Watanabe N, Shimizu M, Kameda K, Kanazawa T, Seto H.
    Journal: Br J Radiol; 1999 Mar; 72(855):308-10. PubMed ID: 10396225.
    Abstract:
    A patient with malignant pleural mesothelioma was investigated using 201Tl scintigraphy. There was diffuse pleural tumour accumulation on planar scintigraphy. Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) demonstrated exact tumour location. It is concluded that planar scintigraphy using 201Tl may be useful in detecting mesothelioma. Clearer tumour localization is possible with SPECT.
