  • Title: [Hepatic scintigraphy and laparoscopy in the diagnosis of the metastatic liver neoplasms. Comparative studies in 112 cases].
    Author: Canossi GC, Cortesi N, Manenti A, Gibertini G.
    Journal: Minerva Chir; 1975 Feb 15; 30(3):126-30. PubMed ID: 123316.
    Abstract:
    Personal experience of hepatic scintigraphy and laparoscopy in the diagnosis of secondary tumors of the liver is reported. The usefulness of both the techniques, associated, is proved by the small number of cases (2,98%) where metastases remained undiagnosed before surgery. Considering only the results of scanning, a larger number of "false positive" is noted, while those of laparoscopy are more often "false negative".
