St. John’s Wort accelerates the liver clearance of technetium-99-sestamibi in rats

DOI: 10.1097/mnm.0000000000000880
Abstract: Background The intense liver uptake of technetium-99-sestamibi (99mTc-MIBI) and photon scattering from the liver cause problems in quantitative perfusion interpretation. Hence, 99mTc-MIBI is a substrate for P-glycoprotein pump; variations in P-glycoprotein levels may affect liver… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/rlu.0000000000003701
Abstract: ABSTRACT A 45-year-old woman, who had endoscopic parathyroidectomy 5 years ago for a right inferior parathyroid adenoma, underwent 99mTc-MIBI scan for the evaluation of recurrent parathyroidism. The images did not identify any abnormal uptake in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1967/s002449910506
Abstract: OBJECTIVE Primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) is characterised by increased parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion and consequently increased plasma calcium. During the last few decades parathyroid scintigraphy (PS), is applied in almost all patients with pPHT before surgery… read more here.
