Related Diseases

1.	Neoplasms (Cancer) 08/01/2000 - "We questioned whether Technetium-99 m pertechnetate ((99m)Tc TcO(4)(-)) scanning could detect clinically significant disease in ostensibly disease-free cancer survivors. " 02/01/1980 - "Water content and uptake of intravenously injected 99mTc pertechnetate in the compressed spinal cord were significantly greater than in the spinal cord distant from the tumor, and increased in proportion to the degree of neurological loss. " 10/01/1987 - "Thus, a dynamic study may be helpful in evaluating the accumulation rate of Tc-99m pertechnetate into this tumor type. " 03/01/2005 - "The purpose of this study was to examine the diagnostic value of the combination of F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET and Tc-99m pertechnetate salivary gland scintigraphy in parotid tumors. " 01/01/2001 - "Our study concludes that Tc-99m pertechnetate scintigraphy with lemon juice stimulation is useful for the detection and diagnosis of Warthin's tumor. "
2.	Meckel Diverticulum 11/01/2014 - "The aim of the study was to delineate stratified diagnostic indicants and evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of technetium-99m (Tc)-pertechnetate scintigraphy in children with symptomatic Meckel's diverticulum (MD). " 07/01/2009 - "Also, 2.3 times more Meckel diverticulum was encountered on CT than on technetium pertechnetate studies. " 07/01/2009 - "The frequency of Meckel diverticulum encountered on CT scans was compared to that found during the same period of time on technetium pertechnetate studies. " 03/01/1988 - "Use of 99mTc pertechnetate scintigraphy appears to be the diagnostic study of choice if Meckel's diverticulum is suspected and the patient is clinically stable. " 01/01/1982 - "A retrospective analysis of 143 studies of abdominal scintigraphy with technetium-99m pertechnetate for the diagnosis of ectopic gastric mucosa (usually located in Meckel diverticulum) was undertaken. "
3.	Hemorrhage 06/01/2002 - "The aim of this study was to determine the clinical utility of 99mTc labelled red blood cell imaging and [99mTc]pertechnetate (Meckel's scan) imaging in a series of 137 patients admitted over a 5 year period to hospital for management of acute gastrointestinal bleeding. " 07/07/2014 - "All patients underwent clinical examination, routine laboratory tests, abdominal ultrasound and technetium-99m pertechnetate scan, and patients with bleeding underwent gastrointestinal endoscopy. " 04/01/2014 - "The bleeding source was not found in the total colonoscopy, and Tc-99m pertechnetate scans were negative in these patients. " 08/01/2008 - "Tc-99m pertechnetate scintigraphy can help to detect ectopic gastric mucosa in the abdomen and improve the management of patients with lower gastrointestinal bleeding." 08/01/2008 - "We report our experience of the detection of ectopic gastric mucosa by means of perfusion Tc-99m pertechnetate disodium scintigraphy in patients with lower gastrointestinal bleeding. "
4.	Primary Hyperparathyroidism 09/01/2001 - "The main purposes of this study were: (a) to investigate the efficacy of an imaging protocol based on the combination of 99mTcO4/MIBI scintigraphy and neck ultrasound (US) in selecting patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (HPT) for unilateral neck exploration, and (b) to help define the role of the intraoperative MIBI gamma probe (IMGP) technique in the performance of minimally invasive radio-guided surgery (MIRS). " 12/12/1992 - "The aim of this study was to evaluate the use of scintigraphy with thallium-201 chloride (201 Tl) and technetium-99m pertechnetate (99mTc) in the diagnosis of the localization of the pathological parathyroid glands in primary hyperparathyroidism and compare the results with those of high resolution ultrasonography. " 07/01/2014 - "Comparison of Tc-99m pertechnetate images with dual-phase Tc 99m MIBI and SPECT images in primary hyperparathyroidism." 03/01/2008 - "A combination of planar 99mTc-MIBI/99mTcO4- scintigraphy and P-SPECT appears to be a highly accurate preoperative imaging procedure in primary hyperparathyroidism." 01/01/2004 - "To determine if T1-201/Tc-99m sodium pertechnetate subtraction scanning (TPSS) is a viable alternative imaging technique for patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (1 degrees HPTH), we reviewed our experience. "
5.	Graves Disease (Basedow Disease) 11/01/2005 - "Fixed doses of 370 MBq of radioiodine seem to be practical and effective for treating Graves' disease patients with [99mTc]pertechnetate uptake <12.5% and thyroid mass <53 g. " 01/01/2008 - "Accumulations in the salivary gland due to Tc-99m pertechnetate imaging improved after isotope therapy for Graves' disease." 09/01/2006 - "The aim of this study was to assess the relation of early thyroid blood flow (EBF) and technetium-99m pertechnetate ((99m)TcO(-)(4)) uptake, as an early diagnostic index in patients with Graves' disease (GD) by dynamic thyroid scintigraphy (40 frames, 3 sec/frame). " 10/05/2014 - "Comparison of thyroid blood flow and uptake indices using technetium-99m pertechnetate in patients with graves' disease and euthyroid subjects." 01/01/2014 - "Pertechnetate radionuclide imaging of the thyroid showed diffusely increased radiotracer uptake consistent with Graves' disease and a cold nodule in the right lobe.
