Increased subglottic gallium uptake in relapsing polychondritis
...on a 14-yr-old girl with subglottic airway narrowing that caused wheezing and dyspnea. The study showed increased gallium uptake in the neck. A biopsy was performed on the subglottic region, and the histology was compatible with relapsing polychondritis...

Photodegraded nifedipine promotes transferrin-independent gallium uptake by cultured tumor cells
It was reported previously that normal soft tissues accumulate 67Ga by a transferrin-dependent route, but uptake by tumors can be transferrin independent. It was also reported that, although overexpression of the transferrin receptor can promote Ga avidity, the transferrin-independent uptake of

Expression of the hemochromatosis (HFE) gene modulates the cellular uptake of (67)Ga
...that persist after treatment of patients with Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (1,2). The mechanisms involved in gallium uptake by cells have been the subject of considerable investigation. Gallium resembles iron in many ways in that it circulates...

Radiation-induced pneumonitis in the "nonirradiated" lung
...field of irradiation, including the contralateral lung. These changes have been demonstrated by diffusely increased gallium uptake on lung scan, lymphocytosis in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid from the contralateral lung, and a histologic pattern...

Patterns of abnormality of bone scans in acute childhood leukemia

When is hilar uptake of (67)Ga-citrate indicative of residual disease after CHOP chemotherapy?
