High grade neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are characterized by destructive and aggressive growth, followed by rapid spread. For this purpose, SPECT/CT with <sup>99m</sup>Tc-Tektrotyd is very useful for imaging and staging of NETs. Case Report: A 50-year-old man with a huge metastatic liver from an unknown neuroendocrine tumor (NET). SPECT/CT with <sup>99m</sup>Tc-Tektrotyd was performed in this patient, it showed a huge metastatic hepatomegaly compressing neighboring organs with bone metastases, and also revealed the primary colon tumor. Discussion and Conclusion: In recent decades, the incidence and prevalence of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), especially those of the colorectal segments, have been increasing. <sup>99m</sup>Tc-EDDA/HYNIC-TOC (Tektrotyd<sup>?</sup>) was introduced into the market and its use has been approved for scintigraphic imaging of patients with NETs and other SSTR-positive tumors. It provides in vivo metabolic data related to the over-expression of Somatostatin Receptors (SSTRs) and also predicts response to peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT).展开更多
文摘目的探讨^(99m)Tc-3PRGD2 SPECT/CT显像半定量参数对可疑乳腺病变的诊断价值,并根据乳腺癌分子分型进行分类比较,分析其与临床病理的相关性。方法收集2020年12月~2022年8月于我院接受检查的70例可疑乳腺病变患者病例资料。根据病理结果,分析乳腺癌Luminal阳性型、Her-2阳性型和三阴性型3种分子亚型与T/N值的相关性;分析雌激素受体、孕激素受体、Her-2及Ki67表达情况与影像学检查指标的关系。结果70例患者病理检查结果证实乳腺癌51例(72.86%),病理分型为Luminal阳性型22例,Her-2阳性型20例,三阴性型9例。乳腺良性病变24例(27.14%)。乳腺癌患者病变侧T/N值高于良性病变患者(3.96±0.82 vs 1.16±0.32),差异有统计学意义(t=14.426,P<0.05)。诊断特异性为84.21%(16/19),敏感度为82.35%(42/51),准确率为82.86%(58/70),ROC曲线下面积为0.834(0.755~0.913),诊断临界值为1.56,即T/N值≥1.56时判定为恶性病变。Her-2阳性型的T/N值高于三阴性型(P<0.05)。Her-2表达阳性患者的T/N值高于Her-2表达阴性的患者(P<0.05)。雌激素受体、孕激素受体和Ki67表达阳性和表达阴性患者的T/N值相比,差异均无统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论^(99m)Tc-3PRGD2 SPECT/CT显像半定量指标在诊断乳腺病变良恶性方面有较高的敏感度,并且Her-2阳性型患者T/N值明显升高,有助于早期发现和诊断乳腺病变,为预测乳腺癌分子分型和治疗有相应的指导作用。
