Abstract
- The authors report a case of undifferentiated mesenchymal tumor in which a Tc-99m MIBI scan demonstrated increased accumulation in the primary site but not in the necrotic areas. Metastatic lung lesions of the tumor were also clearly demonstrated. Thus, they conclude that Tc-99m MIBI can be used to detect and locate a mesenchymal tumor and to assess its viability.
