title: [Procedure guidelines for MIBG-scintigraphy in children].
abstract: The German translation of the EANM guideline for MIBG scintigraphy in children (Olivier P et al. EJNM MI 2003; 30: B45-B50; Hahn K. Der Nuklearmediziner 2002; 25: 101-105) was reviewed and actualized according to current publications, legal requirements and conditions in Germany. For the first time this guideline was generated in consensus with the neuroblastoma study group of the Association of Paediatric Haematologie and Oncology (GPOH) with the result of an interdisciplinary recommendation. Further main alterations are related to the recommended (123)I activities with respect to the new EANM Paediatric Dosage Card and the explicit recommendation of SPECT.
