Primary diagnosis of multiple pheochromocytomas in the brother of a MEN-2 patient by simultaneous MIBG scintigraphy and low-dose computed tomography.

Abstract excerpt

Metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) scintigraphy is a well-established functional imaging method for localizing pheochromocytomas. However, the morphologic information revealed on the scintigram is often too sparse and thus, accordingly, supplemental computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging are often performed.
