Quantitative 3D scintigraphy shows increased muscular uptake of pyrophosphate in idiopathic inflammatory myopathy

BACKGROUND: Nuclear imaging is increasingly being used in the diagnostic work-up of idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM). Increased muscular uptake of technetium-99m-pyrophosphate ((99m)Tc-PYP) has hitherto been assessed qualitatively by planar scintigraphy. We set out to perform quantitative tomo...
