    The development of an epileptogenic focus (1989)

    Notes: Summary A patient is described who developed complex partial seizures with secondary generalization 3 years after a severe viral encephalitis with a CT and EEG identified lesion in the left insular cortex and its surrounding structures. When the seizures first occurred CT and MRI as well as repeated interictal conventional EEG recordings were entirely normal. Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), however, revealed an area of increased 99mTc-hexamethyl propyleneamine oxime (HMPAO) uptake in the left insular cortex. After anticonvulsive therapy the seizures and the SPECT findings disappeared. 99mTc-HMPAO SPECT is a highly sensitive method for the demonstration of functional alterations in brain tissue. It can improve diagnosis of epilepsy and may provide additional information to monitor anticonvulsive therapy.

    Diagnostic value of early and delayed 201Tl thyroid scintigraphy in the evaluation of cold nodules for malignancy (1986)
    Springer
    European journal of nuclear medicine 11 (1986), S. 413-416

    Notes: Abstract We performed 201Tl thyroid scintigraphy using an early and delayed scanning technique in 34 patients exhibiting cold nodules on 99mTc scans. Of the 29 benign nodules, 27 were correctly diagnosed as being negative, i.e. 93% specificity. However, two of five malignant nodules failed to concentrate activity on both the early and delayed scans. The low sensitivity (60%) of this method for detecting carcinomas limits its clinical value in the routine, diagnostic work-up of patients with suspected thyroid cancer. Our findings are in contrast to previous more optimistic reports.
