Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of 99Tcm-HL91 in experimental tumor and inflammation models comparing with 99Tcm-MIBI. Methods Three kinds of solid neoplasm bearing mice (Ehrlich carcinoma bearing mice, H22 carcinoma bearing mice and human ovarian COC1 neoplasm bearing nude mice) and two inflammation models (chemical and bacterial inflammation) underwent static whole body planar imaging at 1 and 4 hours after injection of 99Tcm-HL91. Two kinds of neoplasm bearing mice (Ehrlich carcinoma bearing mice,H22 carcinoma bearing mice) and two inflammation models (chemical and bacterial inflammation) underwent static planar imaging after injection of 99Tcm-MIBI, at early phase (10~20 minutes) and delayed phase (2 h). All of the mice were sacrificed at 4 h. The tumors, or inflammatory lesions, blood and contralateral normal muscles served as controls were removed, weighted and the radioactivity was measured. ROIs were drawn around tumor, inflammatory lesions and contralateral muscles in planar images, and the radioactivity ratios of target (tumor or inflammatory lesions)-to-blood (T/B), target-to non target (contralateral muscles) i.e. T/NT were calculated. Results Neoplasms were clearly visible in planar images at 1 and 4 h after injection of 99Tcm-HL91 in all tumor models. At the same time inflammatory lesions could not be seen clearly. Neoplasms were seen in delayed phase in 99Tcm-MIBI group, but it was not easy to distinguish them from inflammation. The T/B ratios and T/NT ratios of 99Tcm-HL91 tumor model groups were significantly higher than that of 99Tcm-MIBI tumor model groups. The T/NT ratios of tumors were significantly higher than that of inflammatory lesions in 99Tcm-HL91 groups. Conclusion Compared with 99Tcm-MIBI imaging, 99Tcm-HL91 is of much more diagnostic value in detection of certain solid neoplasms, and can distinguish neoplasm from inflammation.
