Zusammenfassung

Die Version 4 der Verfahrensanweisung für die Iod-131-Ganzkörperszintigraphie beim differenzierten Schilddrüsenkarzinom ist ein Update der Version 3, die im Jahr 2007 durch die Deutsche Gesellschaft für Nuklearmedizin (DGN) und die Deutsche Gesellschaft für Medizinische Physik (DGMP) publiziert wurde. Diese Verfahrensanweisung beschreibt mit primärer Zielsetzung die fachgerechte Durchführung der Ganzkörperszintigraphie nach Applikation einer diagnostischen bzw. therapeutischen I-131-Aktivität. Die aktualisierten Indikationen zur I-131-Ganzkörperszintigraphie werden in der Verfahrensanweisung aufgelistet. Neue Erkenntnisse bezüglich der Beziehung zwischen verabreichter Aktivität und Bildqualität wurden in der aktualisierten Verfahrungsanweisung berücksichtigt. Die Verfahrensanweisung wurde von einer repräsentativen Expertengruppe im Konsensverfahren verabschiedet. Sie entspricht damit einer Verfahrensanweisung der ersten Stufe (S1) nach den Kriterien der Arbeitsgemeinschaft der Wissenschaftlichen Medizinischen Fachgesellschaften (AWMF). Zusätzlich wurden Indikationsstellung, Zeitpunkt und Aktivitätswahl für die diagnostische Ganzkörperszintigraphie im erweiterten Kollegenkreis am 30. November 2012, am 19. April 2013 und am 23. April 2015 bei Tagungen der Arbeitsgemeinschaft Schilddrüse der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Nuklearmedizin ausführlich diskutiert.

Summary

Version 4 of the procedural guideline for Iodine-131 whole-body scintigraphy (WBS) in differentiated thyroid carcinoma is an update of the version 3, which was published by the “Deutsche Gesellschaft für Nuklearmedizin” (DGN) and the “Deutsche Gesellschaft für Medizinische Physik” (DGMP) in 2007. This procedural guideline advises on how to best perform I-131 whole body scintigraphy after I-131 therapy or after application of a diagnostic I-131 activity. The updated relevant medical indications for I-131 whole body scintigraphy are given in this procedural guideline. Novel insights on the relationship bet¬ween activity and image quality were incorporated in the updated recommendations. A representative expert group has discussed and reached consensus on the procedural guideline; the development of this procedural guideline therefore fulfils the criteria for level S1 (first step) within the classification of the German Workgroup of Scientific Medical Societies (“Arbeitsgemeinschaft der Wissenschaftlichen Medizinischen Fachgesellschaften”; AWMF). Additionally, indications for WBS, timing and activity for WBS were discussed by the working group “Thyroid” of the DGN on November 30th 2012, April 19th, 2013 and on April 23rd, 2015.
