F. Fiore et al., HEMANGIOMAS OF THE MAXILLOFACIAL AREA - USEFULNESS OF TC-99(M)-LABELED RED-CELL SCINTIGRAPHY, Nuclear medicine communications, 14(5), 1993, pp. 378-383
Recent work reports the usefulness of radionuclides in the study of he
patic hemangiomas. In particular, Tc-99m-red blood cell (RBC) scintigr
aphy is useful to evaluate the vascularization and to plan the therapy
. The aim of this paper is to confirm the usefulness of Tc-99m-RBC sca
ns in the detection and follow-up of maxillofacial hemangiomas. Result
s using this technique in a selected group of patients with maxillofac
ial hemangiomas are reported.
