In the current study, two cases of hepatoma are reported in which N-isopropyl-(I-123)-p-iodoamphetamine (IMP) liver scan demonstrated increased accumulation in the tumor corresponding to the areas enhanced on contrast enhanced CT (CE-CT). In contrast, there was no IMP accumulation in the necrotic area of the tumor in which no enhancement was found on CE-CT. Thus, IMP liver scan seems to have the potential to assess the viability of a hepatoma as well as to detect and localize it.
在本研究中，报告了两例肝癌病例，其中N-异丙基-（I-123）-对碘安非他明（IMP）肝脏扫描显示肿瘤部位放射性摄取增加，与增强CT（CE-CT）上的强化区域相对应。相比之下，肿瘤坏死区域在CE-CT上无强化，IMP扫描也无放射性摄取。因此，IMP肝脏扫描似乎有潜力评估肝癌的存活情况以及对其进行检测和定位。
