Isotope scanning of brain tumors in children.

A Voutilamen, M Sillanpää.   

Abstract

A total of 31 brain tumors (21 verified histologically, 10 by clinical and neuroradiologic methods) in children aged from 7 months to 13 years were investigated by scintigraphy with 99mTc as a radioactive isotope tracer. There were 16 supratentorial and 15 infratentorial tumors. The supratentorial tumors were detected in 88%, and the infratentorial in 13%, of case by brain isotope scanning. The advantages and disadvantages of the method are discussed.
