Abstract「要旨」脳腫瘍が疑われた患者48例を対象に, 脳腫瘍の診断における塩化タリウム (201Tl) 注射液 (以下, 本剤) の臨床的有用性を検討した. 本剤は悪性脳腫瘍に高率に集積し (担当医判定で92.3%) , 良性脳腫瘍に比べ3時間後でより強く残存する傾向がみられた. また, 本剤と18F-FDGの病巣/正常部比 (L/N比) が高い相関を示した (r=0.90) ことから, 脳腫瘍の悪性度の診断に有用であると考えられた. 悪性腫瘍の残存・再発群および壊死群におけるL/N比はそれぞれ, 3.33±0.81および1.73±0.81と前者で高く, また, L/N比≧2.5を腫瘍残存と診断した場合の有徴正診率は83.3%, L/N比<2.5を壊死と診断した場合の有徴正診率は100%であり, 放射線壊死と残存・再発群との鑑別に有用であると考えられた. 本剤は安全性に問題なく, 脳腫瘍の悪性度の評価や再発・壊死病巣の鑑別などの質的診断に有用であると考えられた.

Abstract[Summary] Forty-eight patients with suspected brain tumor were studied to evaluate the clinical efficacy of Thallium-201 (201Tl) SPECT. 201Tl scintigrams showed abnormal accumulation in 24/26 (92.3%) and 9/14 (64.3%) of patients with malignant and benign tumors, respectively. 201Tl tended to be retained more prominently in malignant brain tumors than in benign ones. The lesion-to-normal ratios (L/N ratios) of 201Tl demonstrated significant correlation with those of 18F-FDG (n=5, patients with recurrent tumors than those with necrotic lesions (3.33+-0.81 and 1.73+-0.81, respectively, p=0.0123) . The positive predictive value of L/N ratios>=2.5 for diagnosing as recurrence and L/N ratios<2.5 as necrosis were 83.3% and 100%, respectively. These results suggest that 201Tl scintigraphy may be useful to determine the malignancy of brain tumors and to differentiate recurrence from necrosis after therapeutic procedures.
