Three patients with bilateral breast tumors examined by technetium-99m-sestamibi scintimammography

We presented three patients with bilateral breast tumors (one with breast cancers, one with breast cancer and fibroadenoma, and one with fibroadenomas) examined by 99mTc-hexakis 2-methoxy-isobutylisonitrile (MIBI) scintimammography. In all cases 99mTc-MIBI uptake was recognized only in the breast cancers. 99mTc-MIBI scintimammography was useful in evaluating bilateral breast tumors since preoperative diagnosis is valuable in determining correct surgical treatment.
