    Journal: Kaku Igaku; 1990 Mar; 27(3):221-6. PubMed ID: 1972203.
    Abstract:
    67Ga scintigraphy was performed in 49 patients with fever of unknown origin (FUO). Positive findings were observed in 25 patients out of 49 (51%). Occult focal lesions were demonstrated in 4 patients and useful information for the diagnosis was provided in 4 patients. In short, the examination showed diagnostic usefulness in 8 (32%) out of positive cases. 67Ga scintigraphy may be recommended as a further examination for patients with strongly suspected focal lesion in FUO.
