A radiolabelled monoclonal antibody (NDOG2) directed against placental alkaline phosphatase (PLAP) was used in the radio-immunodetection of ovarian carcinoma. Tumour deposits were successfully visualized in 11 of 15 patients and the abnormalities demonstrated were classified as focal or diffuse. Of the 11 patients, eight showed focal abnormalities alone and three had a diffuse abnormality, of which two also showed a focal abnormality. False-positive results may occur not only due to uptake of 123I by gut mucosa and an inadequately blocked thyroid gland but also from activity in an incompletely emptied bladder. A false-negative result occurred due to high background activity in the liver masking a known, discrete tumour deposit.

D010920 Placenta A highly vascularized mammalian fetal-maternal organ and major site of transport of oxygen, nutrients, and fetal waste products. It includes a fetal portion (CHORIONIC VILLI) derived from TROPHOBLASTS and a maternal portion (DECIDUA) derived from the uterine ENDOMETRIUM. The placenta produces an array of steroid, protein and peptide hormones (PLACENTAL HORMONES). Placentoma, Normal,Placentome,Placentas,Placentomes
D011877 Radionuclide Imaging The production of an image obtained by cameras that detect the radioactive emissions of an injected radionuclide as it has distributed differentially throughout tissues in the body. The image obtained from a moving detector is called a scan, while the image obtained from a stationary camera device is called a scintiphotograph.
