“…Radioactivity accumulation within the lesion of our patient was very prominent in the late phase images. The scintigraphic pattern of the hemangioma which is hypoactive in the vascular phase and hyperactive in the late phase, is previously well established (8,9,10). In some studies, this typical appearance of these tumors was used for the differentiation from malignant tumors and confirmed with histopathology (5).…”

We present a 20 year-old male patient who had prominent positional proptosis of the right eye and admitted to the hospital for tonsillectomy operation. After conventional ophthalmological examination, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and Tc 99m labeled erythrocyte scintigraphy were performed to confirm the diagnosis. Although it is rare to perform scintigraphy for this pathology, the visualization of intraorbital hemangioma was very obvious and we would like to present the visualization of the intraorbital hemangioma both with scintigraphy and MRI. Conflict of interest:None declared.

“…The overlying activity in the urinary diversion, probably due to unlabeled 99mTc-pertechnetate, made the interpretation more difficult and could be mistaken for active GI bleeding. Labeling efficiency is known to be variable, especially with the in vivo method [4,5]. In addition, many drugs interfere with the labeling of RBCs [6].…”

A series of 99mTc-labeled red blood cell (RBC) scintigrams in a patient with a past history of radiation proctitis demonstrated incidental findings of gallbladder activity, probably related to multiple blood transfusions and renal failure. Variable activity in an ileal-loop urinary diversion simulating bowel pooling was also noted. Thus, difficulties encountered in scan interpretation are presented.

Technetium-labeled red blood cell scintigraphy using a bolus injection was used to obtain a noninvasive quantitative measurement of renal blood flow. The method used is an adaptation of the one used for calculating cerebral blood flow which involves deconvolution of the first pass of the isotope through the kidneys. The relative renal blood flow of 18 normal patients and 18 patients with unilateral urinary tract obstruction was performed. All patients with obstruction, but one, were reexamined after surgery. There was a significant difference between the normal and partially obstructed patients (p < 0.001) and between those with partial and complete obstruction (p < 0.01). After surgery a statistically observable improvement in the relative renal blood flow was obtained.
