Objective: The purpose of the study was to investigate if the TKA design (cruciate retaining (CR), posterior stabilized (PS), revision prostheses) had an influence on the bone tracer uptake (BTU) pattern at the origin of the popliteus muscle.

Materials And Methods: A total of 92 knees (male:female = 46:46) which had undergone prior TKA were included in this retrospective study, comprising the following 3 groups: (i) CR primary TKA (n = 45); (ii) PS primary TKA (n = 24); (iii) revision TKA (n = 23). All patients received a SPECT/CT after TKA surgery.

Background: The differentiation of true sentinel lymph nodes from nonsentinel lymph nodes is difficult in cases of multiple radiolabeled or dyed lymph nodes.

Methods: We examined the locations of sentinel lymph nodes in melanoma and other malignant skin tumors by using dynamic lymphoscintigraphy and the single-photon-emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) combined system.

Results: Sentinel lymph nodes were detected in 45 of the 53 patients examined using only the ordinary blue dye method (85%), and were detected in all 35 patients examined using the SPECT/CT method (100%).
