[Selective pancreatic scintiscanning in the diagnosis of pancreatic diseases]

Pancreas scintiscanning using electronic image subtraction has proved useful in the diagnosis of pancreatic disease. Confirmation of this was found on comparison of the scintiscan picture and the surgical picture on gross inspection in 50 cases. Findings indicative of pancreatitis, cysts and tumours are illustrated, together with those given by scintiscanning of pancreas alterations occuring in the course of diseases affecting nearby organs.
