[Nuclear medicine diagnosis in auxiliary liver transplantation in the minipig]
Abstract:
Experiences in the blood-flow measurement (133Xe washing out method) and function test (131J-bromsulphthalein, 99mTc-IDA) were reported after auxiliary liver transplantation in miniature swine. Normal values for the global blood-flow [70 (35-144) ml/100 g . min] and the bromsulphthalein half-time (6,5 +/- 2,4 min) were defined pre-operatively. Selective blood-flow measurements were carried out after transplantation invasively. Only insufficient experiences could be received about the liver-cholescintigraphy in consequence of graft insufficiency.
