Title: Gallium-67 scintigraphy for the diagnosis and localization of perinephric abscesses. Author: Hopkins GB, Hall RL, Mende CW. Journal: J Urol; 1976 Feb; 115(2):126-8. PubMed ID: 1249863. Abstract: Four patients with suspected perinephric abscess were evaluated by gallium-67 scintigraphy. Gallium-67 scintigraphs proved instrumental in correctly diagnosing and localizing 4 left perinephric abscesses. Roentgenographic examinations were negative in 2 cases. Gallium-67 scintigraphy can be a useful non-invasive technique to evaluate patients with suspected perinephric abscess.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
