“…With respect to renal involvement, the ESSDAI includes both tubular and glomerular involvements 16 . Salivary scintigraphic results were classified according to the criteria proposed by Schall and Di Chiro 17 . Samples of blood donors ethnically matched were used for SFTPD genotyping in healthy controls.…”

“…12,3 Time-activity curves and static images of the major salivary glands obtained after the intravenous administration of pertechnetate Tc 99m permit easy evaluation of the excretion pattern and the anatomy of the glands. Salivary gland disease can then be divided into four categories, according to its appearance in a radionuclide study: (1 ) involvement of a solitary salivary gland; (2) involvement of the entire salivary glandular system (most commonly seen in Sj& gren's syndrome); (3) anatomic changes related to mass lesions; and (4) inflammatory disease that alters radionuclide uptake.…”

The advent of both improved imaging systems and new radioactive agents has increased the effectiveness of nuclear medicine in diagnosing and treating diseases of the head and neck. In this first in a series of two articles, the role of nuclear medicine is discussed in the evaluation of diseases of the salivary and parathyroid glands, and in the identification and staging of head and neck tumors. Radionuclide studies of the salivary glands are useful in the identification of tumors and the evaluation of gland function. Such studies are a valuable adjunct in the diagnosis of Sjögren's syndrome and of acute and chronic inflammatory disease. Radionuclide imaging also has been helpful in the detection of adenomata and hyperplasia of the parathyroid glands and often complements ultrasonography localization procedures. The advent of gallium-67 imaging has improved the staging of head and neck tumors.
