  • Title: Scintigraphic visualization of ocular melanoma with Tc-99m glutathione.
    Author: Tutuş A, Erkiliç K, Ercan MT, Kontaş O, Aydin M, Doğan H.
    Journal: Ann Nucl Med; 1997 May; 11(2):143-6. PubMed ID: 9212895.
    Abstract:
    In a patient with ocular melanoma scintigraphy obtained with 99mTc-GSH clearly demonstrated the histologically proven ocular lesion both in planar and SPECT images. 99mTc-sestamibi study obtained in the same patient three days later was negative. 99mTc-GSH is a potential alternative to the currently used radiopharmaceuticals for imaging both cutaneous and ocular melanomas and their metastases.
