Gallium-67 imaging in pulmonary eosinophilic granuloma.

Gallium-67 citrate has been known to localize in the lungs in a variety of pulmonary diseases. Abnormal lung activity implies active underlying disease. Serial Ga-67 lung scans may be helpful when steroids are used as therapeutic agents. A case of pulmonary eosinophic granuloma is reported here with diffuse bilateral Ga-67 pulmonary activity.

Intraosseous ganglion. Bone imaging with Tc-99m MDP.

Intraosseous ganglia are benign cystic lesions of bone located in close relationship to the articular cartilage. The typical location and roentgenographic appearance of this lesion should permit a diagnosis of this entity which should be considered in the differential diagnosis of benign lesions of bone. Appearance of this lesion on a bone scan is shown in this case report.

Gallium scan in intracerebral sarcoidosis.

Sarcoidosis involving the nervous system probably occurs in about 4% of patients. The usefulness of brain scintigraphy in these cases has been suggested. In this case of cerebral sarcoid granuloma, gallium imaging demonstrated the lesion before treatment and showed disappearance of the lesion after corticosteroid treatment, which correlated with the patient's clinical improvement.

Scintigraphy in epidermoid tumor of the skull.

In two patients, skull lesions radiologically typical of epidermoid tumor, but surgically unproven, showed intense concentration of Tc-99m-MDP. The lesions were also faintly positive with Tc-99m-DTPA and Ga-67-citrate.
