Diagnostic Efficiency of Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography with ^99MTc-MIBI in Visualization of Malignant Tumors of the Larynx and Laryngopharynx

To study the diagnostic efficiency of single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) with 99m Tc-MIBI 40 patients were chosen for diagnosing primary and recurrence of laryngeal or laryngopharyngeal cancer and as well as patients with benign diseases of the larynx. All patients underwent SPECT with 99m Tc-MIBI. As a result it has been found that the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of SPECT with 99m Tc-MIBI in the diagnostics of primary...
