English

Subject field(s)
  • Radiography (Medicine)
  • Nuclear Medicine
CONT

Whole-body scintigraphy obtained 31 months after the diagnosis shows persistently increased uptake of gallium-67 in the abdomen.

OBS

Gallium is a Group IIIb transition metal. Gallium-67 is widely used in nuclear medicine as a tumor-imaging agent by gamma-emission scintigraphy. ... Over the years, the role of 67Ga in nuclear medicine imaging for oncology has been almost exclusively focused on assessing the response of lymphomas to therapeutic maneuvers.

CONT

OEM [otite externe maligne] et scintigraphie au gallium (Ga67). Le citrate de gallium est un traceur bien connu de l’inflammation et de l’infection grâce à sa liaison directe aux leucocytes et à sa complexation avec la lactoferrine issue de l’inflammation : il se fixe sur tout foyer infectieux actif, que celui-ci soit limité aux parties molles (comme dans l’OES [otite externe sévère]) ou étendu à l’os (dans l’OEM) : une fixation du Ga67 n’est donc pas spécifique d’une OEM.

CONT

[...] la fixation du FDG [fluorodésoxyglucose] est liée à une augmentation locale de l'entrée cellulaire du glucose, la fixation du gallium-67 repose sur de multiples mécanismes complexes(liaison à la transferrine, fixation lysosomiale).
