[Radioisotope topical diagnosis of malignant lymphomas using gallium-67 citrate]

The diagnostic value of Ga-67 citrate scintigraphy was estimated based on the comparison of clinical and roentgenological findings, including lymphography, in 46 patients with lymphogranulomatosis and other malignant lymphomas. The results obtained indicated that scintigraphy with Ga-67 citrate is a valuable adjunct for diagnosing malignant lymphomas and lymphogranulomatosis in previously untreated patients and in the recurrences.
