Title: 99mTc-MDP SPECT/CT for assessment of condylar hyperplasia. Author: Derlin T, Busch JD, Habermann CR. Journal: Clin Nucl Med; 2013 Jan; 38(1):e48-9. PubMed ID: 23242067. Abstract: We report a case of condylar hyperplasia diagnosed with 99mTc-MDP SPECT/CT. A 21-year-old woman with facial asymmetry was referred for assessment of condylar growth activity. SPECT/CT confirmed condylar hyperactivity, and simultaneous low-dose CT contributed to the diagnosis of hemimandibular hyperplasia. SPECT/CT may become a valuable tool for the diagnosis and comprehensive assessment of condylar hyperplasia, providing both functional and morphological information.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
