“…Recent studies have shown that good quality double contrast barium enema can miss quite extensive inflamma-tion2 14 and in the present study, five of the 23 cases with colitis had normal radiology. This figure would have been higher if expert review had not been performed.…”

“…11 ~Indium-labelled leukocyte scanning is now established as an effective alternative to gallium 67 citrate for localizing abscesses [5][6][7][8]. In preliminary studies we and others have shown that this technique can image a variety of inflammatory bowel diseases [9,10] with an accuracy in defining extent of colonic disease equal to radiology [11].…”

Abstract. Twelve patients with Crohn's disease of the small bowel were evaluated by ~ 1 qndium leukocyte scanning of the abdomen. There was localization of the labelled cells in the areas of active Crohn's disease and the findings were in complete agreement with the extent of abnormalities demonstrated on barium examination of the small intestine. The value of this technique in the assessment of Crohn's disease and as an adjunct to the conventional small bowel series is discussed.

“…Tumours, including lymphoma, can show uptake of 111In-labelled WBCs [11,12] but uptake of 99mTc-HMPAO labelled WBCs has not been reported before. Being a tumour-detecting radioisotope, the presence of small amounts of free 111In oxine has been postulated as a possible cause for such uptake but the same cannot be said for 99mTc.…”

Uptake of technetium-99m hexamethylpropylene amine oxime labelled white cells in lymph nodes involved in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma

Abstract. Radiolabelled white cell scanning is widely used to detect the presence of infection. We present a case of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma manifesting with signs and symptoms suggestive of infection, in which a technetium-99m hexamethylpropylene amine oxime (99mTc-HMPAO) white cell scan demonstrated high uptake in lymph nodes involved by lymphoma. Differential cell analysis showed preferential lymphocyte labelling. The classification and management of the disease were changed accordingly. Our findings suggest that a future role for 99mTc-HMPAO labelled white cells in the assessment of disease activity of lymphoma should be investigated.
