In 23 patients with chronic osteomyelitis roentgenography of the bones and three-phase scintigraphy including radionuclide angiography, investigation of the soft tissues and bones were performed. In comparison of the data of clinical examination, roentgenography and radionuclide methods of diagnosis, the correspondence of the data of radionuclide angiography to the phase of an inflammatory process was established.

Background: Small-molecule biomacromolecules target tumor-specific antigens. They are employed as theranostic agents for imaging and treatment. Intravenous small-molecule radioligands exhibit rapid tumor uptake and excretion.

Stress radionuclide myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) has been well-established as a useful modality for assessing the status of the coronary circulation in post-coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) patients. CABG by itself escalates progression of atherosclerosis or thrombosis in bypassed native coronary arteries. In most cases MPI will be employed in post-CABG patients who are experiencing symptoms.

 Equilibrium radionuclide angiography (ERNA) has long been assumed as the preferred method to assess cardiac volumes as well as left ventricular systolic and diastolic indices. ERNA was used to diagnose subtle changes in cardiac function during chemotherapy or early stages of heart failure. Gated myocardial perfusion SPECT (GMPS) was introduced as a more feasible and versatile alternative to ERNA, but the precision of GMPS to assess systolic and diastolic indices has not yet been fully reviewed.

Cutaneous ureterostomy (CU) is the most simple and safe method of all permanent urinary diversions, but is associated with a risk for stomal obstruction. It is important to appropriately manage hydronephrosis associated with CU. We evaluated the occurrence of stomal obstruction after CU by 99m Tcmercaptoacetyltriglycine (MAG3) diuretic renography three months after surgery.

The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of GFR measured using ROI from ultrasound technique in diuretic renography for evaluating postoperative outcomes in infants under one year old with congenital hydronephrosis. A retrospective analysis was conducted on thirty infants who underwent abdominal ultrasound and diuretic renography before and after surgery, obtaining preoperative and postoperative gGFRs and uGFRs (measured using ROI from ultrasound technique) determined using the Gates method and ultrasonic-assisted drawing ROI technique, respectively. A comparative study was performed on total GFR as well as individual kidney GFR before and after intervention.
