  • Title: [Scintigraphy of the bone marrow with 111In-citrin in polycythemia vera].
    Author: Prikhod'ko AG, Sheptun AN, Vikman IaE, Sorokin IN, Rozdil'skiĭ SI.
    Journal: Med Radiol (Mosk); 1986 May; 31(5):30-3. PubMed ID: 3713467.
    Abstract:
    Scintigraphy of the bone marrow with 111In-citrin was performed in 32 patients with polycythemia vera and 8 controls. The method ensured an objective assessment of bone marrow function in patients with polycythemia vera. A characteristic RP scintigraphic picture corresponded to different clinical stages of the disease. A degree of a decrease in the blood radioactivity within 24 h after i. v. administration of 111In-citrin reflected the summary erythropoietic activity of the bone marrow and could serve as a differential diagnostic criterion in determining a stage of polycythemia vera.
