ABSTRACT
Radionuclide imaging with N-isopropyl-(I-123)p-iodoamphetamine ([123I]IMP) was performed in a patient with recurrent bronchial carcinoid tumor. Increased accumulation of [123I]IMP was observed in the known lesions of the brain and neck on both tomographic and planar images. Scintigraphy also revealed unknown metastatic lesions of the paraaortic lymph nodes, which were later confirmed on x-ray CT. Iodine-123-IMP may have a potential role in evaluating carcinoid tumors.
