131I-Meta-iodobenzylguanidine has proved to be useful for the diagnosis of different kinds of neoplasms of neuroectodermal origin. The value of this scintigraphic method as a complementary technic to conventional diagnostic tests for staging in a child with neuroblastoma is described. In another child an ontogenetically related tumor, a mediastinal ganglioneuroma, was also visualized.
