  • Title: Primary malignant lymphoma of the central nervous system by Ga-67 and TI-201 brain SPECT.
    Author: Kosuda S, Aoki S, Suzuki K, Nakamura H, Nakamura O, Shidara N.
    Journal: Clin Nucl Med; 1992 Dec; 17(12):961-4. PubMed ID: 1464174.
    Abstract:
    Two patients with primary lymphoma of the central nervous system underwent both Ga-67 and TI-201 brain SPECT. Ga-67 scans showed remarkable accumulation of radiotracer corresponding to tumors detected by CT and MRI. More avid uptake was noted on the Ga-67 scans than on the TI-201 scans. In one patient, the intense tracer uptake had disappeared in the Ga-67 study performed after irradiation with 50 Gy. We are convinced that Ga-67 SPECT is useful for detecting and following the progress of primary lymphoma of the central nervous system.
