67Ga-citrate scanning in hypernephroma.

67Ga scanning was performed in 26 patients with hypernephroma (17 with only a primary lesion of hypernephroma, 4 with both primary and metastatic lesions, 2 with hypernephroma and pyelonephritis, and 3 with only a metastatic lesion after nephrectomy). In patients with primary lesions alone, the positive finding rate by 67Ga scanning was low (26%), and in metastatic lesions that by scanning was high (86%). The practical conclusions are as follows: 67Ga scanning is of littel use as a diagnostic aid in primary lesion of hypernephroma, but may be useful in case with metastases with inflammatory disease.

Clinical evaluation of tumor imaging with 201 TI chloride.

201TI was used as an imaging agent in 173 malignant tumors and 76 benign lesions. The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were 0.64, 0.61, and 0.63, respectively. Sensitivity was good in thyroid cancer (0.91) and fair in primary lung cancer (0.70) and primary liver cancer (0.71). Compared with 67Ga, 201TI appears to have a higher sensitivity in thyroid cancer and nearly the same sensitivity in primary lung cancer. 201TI might be useful in distinguishing cold thyroid nodules and in differentiating primary liver cancer from metastases.

Pancreas-passaged avian encephalomyelitis virus and its immunogenicity.

A serial 34-chicken pancreas passage of avian encephalomyelitis virus by oral administration was successful. Oral inoculation test with 4 passaged viruses showed rapid infection of the duodenal wall and unchangeable infection of pancreas diminishing the viral invasiveness to other organs. The passaged virus caused neither detectable viremia nor clinical avian encephalomyelitis signs and produced neutralizing antibody of high titers.

Immunofluorescent study on egg-adapted avian encephalomyelitis virus infection in chickens.

Fluorescent antibody study showed persistent infection of egg-adapted avian encephalomyelitis virus in the central nervous system and pancreatic tissues of infected embryos and chickens hatched from them. The limited organ tropism of the egg-adapted virus in hatched chickens was in striking contrast to the systemic infection that occurs with a field strain. In chidkens orally infected with egg-adapted virus strains, transient infection of a few organs was found despite occurrence of viremia.

Comparative pathogenicity of avian encephalomyelitis viruses in chicken embryos.

Multiplications of wild, various embryo-adapting and completely embryo-adapted avian encephalomyelitis (AE) viruses in chicken embryos were compared by the fluorescent-antibody technique (FAT). With a wild AE virus, viral antigens were randomly seen in the central nervous system (CNS), appearing least often in the cerebellum. Other organs seldom became test positive, except for heart and kidney. Even with 4 chicken brain-passaged viruses in the process of embryo adaptation, there was little augmentation of antigens except in the alimentary tract. However, the 2 midpassage viruses showed a peculiar localization of antigens in the white matter of the lumbosacral cord, together with the appearance of test-positive spinal ganglion cells. With 2 strains of embryo-adapted AE virus, the antigens appeared first in the spinal ganglion cells and secondly in the lumbosacral cord and then spread to the cerebrum. Subsequently, clinical signs of AE were evident. This peculiar invasion order was a prominent feature.
