We investigated the usefulness of whole-body imaging as an adjunct to spot imaging in soft-tissue vascular lesions, such as hemangiomas and vascular malformations. Spot imaging of the known lesion and whole-body imaging were performed 1-3 hours after the injection of Tc-99m RBC in 42 patients with soft-tissue vascular lesions. Whole-body imaging was considered to be useful in only two patients, who had multiple distant occult lesions in addition to large known lesions. It was suggested that the routine addition of whole-body imaging is not cost effective in patients with soft-tissue vascular lesions, although it may be beneficial for detecting occult lesions in patients with hemangiomas.
我们研究了全身成像作为软组织血管病变(如血管瘤和血管畸形)点状成像辅助手段的实用性。对42例软组织血管病变患者在注射99m锝标记红细胞后1至3小时进行已知病变的点状成像和全身成像。全身成像仅对两名患者有用,这两名患者除了有大的已知病变外,还有多个远处隐匿性病变。结果表明,对于软组织血管病变患者,常规加做全身成像不具有成本效益,尽管它可能有助于检测血管瘤患者的隐匿性病变。
