Scintigraphic localization of pheochromocytoma.
James C. Sisson,Marc S. Frager,Timothy W. Valk,Milton D. Gross,Dennis P. Swanson,Donald M. Wieland,Michael C. Tobes,William H. Beierwaltes,Norman W. Thompson +8 more
TL;DR: A new radiopharmaceutical agent, [ 131I]meta-iodobenzylguanidine ([131I]MIBG), is used to produce scintigraphic images of pheochromocytomas in eight patients, offering hope of safe and reliable localization of p heochromocytes in their many guises.
Journal Article
Myocardial Imaging with a Radioiodinated Norepinephrine Storage Analog
Donald M. Wieland,Lawrence E. Brown,W.L. Rogers,K C Worthington,Jiann-long Wu,Neal H. Clinthorne,Charlotte A. Otto,Dennis P. Swanson,William H. Beierwaltes +8 more
TL;DR: Meta-iodobenzylguanidine (M-IBG), an iodinated aromatic analog of the hypotensive drug quanethidine, localizes in the heart of the rat, dog, and rhesus monkey and blocking studies with reserpine suggest that a major component of myocardial retention is sequestration within the norephinephrine storage vesicles of the adrenergic nerves.
Journal Article
Myocardial imaging in man with I-123 meta-iodobenzylguanidine.
Robert C. Kline,Dennis P. Swanson,Donald M. Wieland,James H. Thrall,Milton D. Gross,Bertram Pitt,William H. Beierwaltes +6 more
TL;DR: The left ventricle could be visualized within 1 to 2 min of m-(/sup 123/I)I)IBG injection as discussed by the authors, and myocardial uptake was 0.63% (range 0.45 to 0.78%) of injected dose at 5 min, and 0.76% at 2 hr (n = 4).
Journal Article
Metaiodobenzylguanidine to map scintigraphically the adrenergic nervous system in man.
James C. Sisson,Brahm Shapiro,Laura J. Meyers,Shirley Mallette,Thomas J. Mangner,Donald M. Wieland,J.V. Glowniak,Phillip S. Sherman,William H. Beierwaltes +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the movement of metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) into and out of organs by quantitative scintigraphy in man and found that MIBG concentrations in the heart were subsequently altered in patterns consistent with the concept that [123I]MIBG resides mostly in adrenergic neurons.
Journal Article
The Normal and Abnormal Distribution of the Adrenomedullary Imaging Agent m-[I-131]Iodobenzylguanidine (I-131 MIBG) in Man: Evaluation by Scintigraphy
M. Nakajo,Brahm Shapiro,Jeanne E. Copp,Victor Kalff,Milton D. Gross,James C. Sisson,William H. Beierwaltes +6 more
TL;DR: The scintigraphic distribution of m-[131I]iodobenzylguanidine (I-131 MIBG), an adrenal medullary imaging agent, was studied to determine the patterns of uptake of this agent in man and includes clear portrayal of the salivary glands, liver, spleen, and urinary bladder.
