Title: Technetium-99m (V) DMSA uptake in amyloidosis. Author: Ohta H, Endo K, Kanoh T, Konishi J, Kotoura H. Journal: J Nucl Med; 1989 Dec; 30(12):2049-52. PubMed ID: 2555464. Abstract: Technetium-99m(V) DMSA scintigraphy was performed in two patients with pathologically confirmed amyloidosis associated with plasmacytoma. Significant uptake of the tracer was found in the deposition of amyloid. Technetium-99m(V) DMSA scintigraphy could be useful in determining the appropriate region of biopsy and in forecasting the prognosis of patient with plasmacytoma.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
