Suck-Hee Ahn, Young-Ho Rah, Sa-Jun Chung, Eu-Hyun Cho

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1999;42(12):1711-1716. Published online December 15, 1999

Purpose : To determine the role of Tc-99m HMPAO SPECT imaging in children with intractable seizure by evaluating the interictal period. Methods : We compared the EEG, CT and MRI medical records with those of Tc-99m HMPAO SPECT in 42 patients with intractable seizure referred to Kyunghee University Hospital, from April 1983 to September 1998, retrospectively. Results : Mean age was 8.3 years...

Gyo-Dang Koo, Young-Ho Rah, Chong-Woo Bae, Sa-Jun Chung, Yong-Mook Choi

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1998;41(1):74-80. Published online January 15, 1998

Purpose : Early diagnosis of foreign body aspiration and removal of the inhaled material may save the patient from chronic illness and may prevent serious complications. At present the diagnostic problems of bronchial foreign bodies are being solved by using the lung scanning technique. Therefore, we investigated the clinical study and diagnositic value of the lung perfusion scan in foreign body aspiration. Methods : Eighteen...
