RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To assess the status of cerebral perfusion in patients with eating disorders (ED) in the acute phase of the disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Seventeen patients, with a mean age of 22 years, diagnosed with ED according to DSM-III-R (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) criteria and under close clinical monitoring were studied in the initial acute phase of their disease. Brain SPECT with 15 mCi of Tc99m HMPAO was performed on all patients and assessed using visual and semi-quantitative analysis. The latter was carried out by obtaining left/right indices in sixteen symmetrical 5 x 5 pixel regions of interest (ROI) in three transverse slices, one below the cantho-meatal line and two above, at 2 and 5 cm, respectively. RESULTS; Visual analysis showed hypoperfusion of the anteroinferior region of the left temporal lobe in 7/17 patients, and in the homonymous region of the right temporal lobe in 1/17. Semi-quantitative analysis did not show statistically significant differences in the slices above the cantho-meatal line when the means of the asymmetry indices were compared between the anterior (frontal), middle (temporal and parietal) and posterior (occipital) regions of each slice, obtaining values ranging between 0.99 +/- 0.05 and 1.02 +/- 0.03. However, in the lowest slice, the anterior (temporal) region showed a mean asymmetry value of 0.89 +/- 0.15, and on comparing it with the mean of the asymmetry indices of the posterior region (cerebellum), it showed a statistically significant difference (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Patients with ED frequently show hypoperfusion of the anteroinferior region of the temporal lobe, predominantly in the left hemisphere, in the acute phase of the illness.

RESUMO

Objetivo. Valorar el estado de la perfusión cerebral en pacientes con trastornos de la conducta alimentaria (TCA) en fase aguda de la enfermedad. Material y métodos. Se estudiaron 17 pacientes, con una edad media de 22 años, diagnosticados de TCA según los criterios del DSM-III-R (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) bajo control clínico estrecho en la fase aguda inicial de su enfermedad. A cada paciente se le realizó una tomografía computarizada por emisión de fotón único (SPECT) cerebral con 15 mCi de hexametil propileno amino oxima (HMPAO)-Tc99m que fue valorado mediante análisis visual y semicuantitativo. Este último se realizó obteniendo índices izquierda/derecha en 16 regiones de interés (ROI) simétricas de 5 ¥ 5 píxeles en tres cortes transversales, uno por debajo de la línea canto-meatal y dos por encima, a 2 y 5 cm, respectivamente. Resultados. El análisis visual mostró la existencia de hipoperfusión de la región anteroinferior del lóbulo temporal izquierdo en 7/17 pacientes y en la región homónima del lóbulo temporal derecho en 1/17. El análisis semicuantitativo no reveló diferencias estadísticamente significativas en los cortes por encima de la línea canto-meatal cuando se compararon entre sí las medias de los índices de asimetría entre las regiones anterior (frontal), media (temporal y parietal) y posterior (occipital) de cada corte; obteniéndose valores en un rango entre 0,99 ± 0,05 y 1,02 ± 0,03. Sin embargo, en el corte más inferior, la región anterior (temporal) mostró un valor promedio de asimetría de 0,89 ± 0,15 y al compararla con el promedio de los índices de asimetría de la región posterior (cerebelo) mostró una diferencia estadísticamente significativa (p < 0,05). Conclusión. En los pacientes con TCA existe frecuentemente hipoperfusión de la región anteroinferior del lóbulo temporal, de predominio izquierdo, en la fase aguda de la enfermedad

RESUMO

UNLABELLED: Oncological FDG PET show variants and findings that may lead to a diagnostic error and that may be clarified by the morfofunctional imaging from PET/CT. In this article we show the experience acquired since a Siemens PET/CT Biograph LSO Pico3D was applied in our centre. We describe some representative examples of FDG distribution patterns which may lead to erroneous interpretations of the clinical studies when they refer to specific clinical situations. The examples included are classified into two main groups according to the cause: Technical and biological, and the latter into physiological and non-physiological (pathophysiological). Patterns are described within the biological group showing changes of the FDG biodistribution that may reduce the uptake in tumoural lesions, the physiological variants that may be interpreted as pathology, the effects of previous treatment and uptakes related to benign diseases. CONCLUSION: We consider that knowledge of these variants and findings to be crucial in order to obtain optimal performance of PET/CT and to overcome the PET limitations.

RESUMO

Las exploraciones oncológicas con FDG presentan variantes y hallazgos que pueden inducir a un error diagnóstico y que la imagen morfofuncional de la PET/TAC puede resolver. En este artículo presentamos la experiencia adquirida desde que comenzara a ser operativo un equipo PET/TAC Biograph LSO Pico3D de Siemens en nuestro centro. Describimos aquí algunos ejemplos representativos de patrones de distribución de la FDG que pueden dar lugar a interpretaciones erróneas de los estudios cuando se refieren a situaciones clínicas concretas. Los ejemplos incluidos se clasifican según el tipo de causa que los origina en dos grandes grupos: de causa técnica y de causa biológica y a su vez este último en fisiológicos y no fisiológicos (fisiopatológicos). Dentro de los biológicos se describen patrones que muestran alteraciones de la biodistribución de la FDG disminuyendo su captación por las lesiones tumorales, las variantes fisiológicas que pueden simular patología, los efectos de los tratamientos previos y las captaciones relacionables con patologías no malignas. Conclusión: podemos decir que consideramos esencial el conocimiento de estas variantes y hallazgos para obtener el óptimo rendimiento de la PET/TAC y para la superación de las limitaciones de la PET

RESUMO

Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) is a rare disorder with fewer than 80 cases reported in the world. It consists of a non-Langerhans' cell histiocytosis that usually presents as pain due to bone involvement; however, the prognosis is marked by extraskeletal involvement. Although the final diagnosis needs an anatomophatologic study (normally through a bone biopsy), radiologic and scintigraphic findings are quasi pathognomonic. In this work, we report 2 ECD cases and their respective bone scans showing typical findings described in the literature. We found bilateral and symmetrical increased uptake of diaphyses and metaphyses of long bones, mainly in lower limbs. The mid-diaphyses and the epiphyses (partially in the first case) as well as the axial skeleton are spared.

RESUMO

La enfermedad de Erdheim-Chester (EEC) es una enfermedad rara, con menos de 80 casos publicados en el mundo. Consiste en una histiocitosis de células no Langerhans que se manifiesta habitualmente en forma de dolor, por compromiso óseo, aunque es la afectación extraósea la que marca el pronóstico. Aunque el diagnóstico definitivo precisa un estudio anatomopatológico (habitualmente a través de una biopsia ósea), los hallazgos radiológicos, y también los gammagráficos, son quasi-patognomónicos. En este trabajo presentamos 2 casos de EEC y sus respectivas gammagrafías óseas. Ambos muestran los hallazgos típicos descritos en la literatura. Observamos hipercaptaciones bilaterales simétricas en las diáfisis y metáfisis de los huesos largos, fundamentalmente en las extremidades inferiores, estando respetadas las epífisis (en el primer caso sólo parcialmente) y el tercio medio de las diáfisis, así como el esqueleto axial.
