99m Tc-MIBI Whole Body Scan: A Potentially Useful Technique for Evaluating Metabolic Bone Disease
Metabolic bone disease due to hyperparathyroidism is characterized by increased bone resorption and new bone formation. 99m Tc- hexakis-2-methoxyisobutylisonitrile ( 99m Tc MIBI) accumulation is controlled by metabolic function and cell viability. To investigate, for the first time, the potential of...
