[The radionuclide hepato-angiography in the clinical diagnosis (author's transl)]

In 156 patients the dynamic liver perfusion study with 99mTc-sulfur colloid and the scintillation camera was performed. Out of the 81 cases with confirmed diagnosis, the rapid sequential liver study was only in one case to provide an additional information of clinical importance, which could not be demonstrated by static liver imaging. Except for 2 patients with carcinoid metastases of the liver and 3 cases of acute hepatitis, we did not find any significant difference in the activity appearance in the liver between normal subjects and patients with liver metastases and diffuse liver diseases.
