A Case Of Thallium-201 Accumulation By Mucocele
CLINICAL NUCLEAR MEDICINE(1996)
Abstract
An elderly man undergoing evaluation for a frontal expansive procedure demonstrated focal Tl-201 accumulation during the performance of a Tl-201 brain scan. This Tl-201 accumulation corresponded to a heterogeneous frontal lesion found on CT and MRI studies. The lesion was removed completely and the pathologic diagnosis was consistent with a mucocele. This case report highlights the need for cautious evaluation of focal Tl-201 uptake, despite the presence of typical scintigraphic features of brain tumor.
