On the basis of previously unpublished observations, we hypothesized that prolonged use of
proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) causes an increase in 99mTc-sestamibi uptake in the stomach …

Discussion. On the basis of SPECT and CT results, it was concluded that the extracardiac
activity was a result of increased tracer activity within the hiatal hernia. Technetium-labeled …

Abstract A 68-year-old obese, hypertensive, diabetic woman with a history of intermittent
bleeding from a hiatal hernia was examined and found to have anemia and exertional chest …
