Background: Superselective adrenal artery embolization (SAAE) represents a novel therapeutic strategy for managing primary aldosteronism (PA). Currently, the evaluation of its efficacy is primarily restricted to clinical indicators, with a notable deficiency in imaging evaluation methodologies. In recent years, several studies have investigated the application of Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT for the classification of PA.

Sepsis is a life-threatening condition resulting from a dysregulated host response to infection. Currently, there is no effective therapy for sepsis due to an incomplete understanding of its pathogenesis. Scavenger receptor BI (SR-BI) is a high-density lipoprotein (HDL) receptor that plays a key role in HDL metabolism by modulating the selective uptake of cholesteryl ester from HDL.

Primary aldosteronism (PA) is a common, salt-sensitive form of endocrine hypertension. Compared with essential hypertension (EH), PA is more susceptible to cardiorenal complications and metabolic risks. However, PA has a low screening rate and a poor response to mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs).

From the Department of Nuclear Medicine, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, India.
Purpose: This study aimed to assess the biodistribution and radiation dosimetry of 68Ga-DATA5m LM4 in patients with gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.
Patients And Methods: Eight patients (5 females and 3 males) with various gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors were included in the study. Each patient underwent 3 whole-body PET scans at 10, 60, and 120 minutes after receiving an IV injection of approximately 162.
Case report: A 51-year-old diabetic patient with primary bilateral macronodular adrenal hyperplasia and primary hyperparathyroidism.

A 51-year-old female patient with diabetes mellitus and hypertension, exhibiting poor control of blood sugar and blood pressure, was unexpectedly found to have multiple large adrenal nodules, excessive cortisol secretion, and adrenocorticotropic hormone inhibition. Cortisol levels remained unresponsive to both low-dose and high-dose dexamethasone tests, leading to a diagnosis of primary bilateral macronodular adrenal hyperplasia. Concurrently, elevated blood calcium and parathyroid hormone levels, along with 99mTc-methoxyisobutyl isonitrile (99mTc-MIBI) imaging revealing increased 99mTc-MIBI uptake in the right inferior parathyroid gland, suggest the consideration of primary hyperparathyroidism.
