    Notes: Abstract This study evaluated the effects of steroid inhalation on the deposition pattern of Tc-99m human serum albumin (Tc-99m HSA) radioaerosols in 25 asthma patients. A total of 12 normal controls also underwent the same examination. The pattern of radioaerosol deposition was quantitatively evaluated as the percentage of total deposition (PTD) in the central, intermediate, and peripheral regions of the right lung. The baseline PTD was calculated before and after the administration of a 1-week course of inhalation therapy of 0.05 mg beclomethasone dipropionate four times daily. There were significant differences in PTD between normal controls and asthma patients. Significant differences were also found before and after corticosteroid inhalation therapy in asthma patients. In conclusion, a week-long course of beclomethasone dipropionate inhalation therapy does influence the deposition patterns of aerosols in asthma patients, based on the findings of Tc-99m HSA radioaerosol inhalation lung scintigraphy.

    Notes: Abstract  Technetium Tc-99m disofenin cholescintigraphy (CS) and ultrasonography (US) are two major clinical methods used in differentiating biliary atresia (BA) from neonatal jaundice. To compare the diagnostic utility of these two modalities, 66 patients with neonatal cholestasis (15 BA, 3 choledochal cyst (CC), 32 neonatal hepatitis, 13 prolonged jaundice, 2 total parenteral nutrition, and 1 sepsis) underwent Tc-99m disofenin CS and US. The diagnostic sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of CS in differentiating BA from other forms of neonatal jaundice was 100%, 87.5%, and 90.5%, respectively, and for US 86.7%, 77.1%, and 79.4%, respectively. Tc-99m disofenin CS after premedication with phenobarbital and cholestyramine is a convenient and reliable method of differentiating BA from neonatal hepatitis, with a diagnostic accuracy superior to that of US. However, US is the initial imaging procedure of choice in patients presenting with jaundice to rule out anatomic anomalies such as CC.
