Title: Clinical correlation of hepatic flow studies. Author: Witek JT, Spencer RP. Journal: J Nucl Med; 1975 Jan; 16(1):71-2. PubMed ID: 1053789. Abstract: In 100 consecutive hepatic flow studies, 84 were read as negative. Of these, 73 (87%) also had negative static images. Knowing the nature of the primary tumor did not definitively aid in predicting whether hepatic meastases would have detectable early flow. Five cases showed early flow without defects seen in the static images. Three of these were probably related to lymphomas or allied disorders with altered flow. Two cases were in individuals with gastric carcinoma who had abdoninal radiation. One extrahepatic tumor was detected in the series.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
