Abstract:
The technique of scintigraphy of the liver is presented by two case examples of dogs with portosystemic shunts. 99mtechnetium-pertechnetate was used as a marker. Comparison of velocity and height of the activity reaching liver and heart and lung allows a statement about the existence of a portosystemic shunt.
