  • Title: Scintigraphic findings in a primary cerebral amyloidoma.
    Author: Moreno AJ, Brown JM, Brown TJ, Graham GD, Yedinak MA.
    Journal: Clin Nucl Med; 1983 Nov; 8(11):528-30. PubMed ID: 6317260.
    Abstract:
    Bone, brain, and gallium scintigrams are presented of a 48-year-old man with biopsy-proven cerebral amyloidosis. Brain scintigraphy revealed a well-circumscribed accumulation of Tc-99m pertechnetate in the amyloidoma. Bone scintigraphy using Tc-99m methylenediphosphonate likewise exhibited increased activity in the same area. Gallium-67 citrate, however, failed to localize within the amyloidoma.
