Title: 'Hot' and 'cold' lesions detected by gallium-67 scintigraphy in a pyogenic liver abscess. Author: Shih WJ, Domstad PA, DeLand FH. Journal: Eur J Nucl Med; 1985; 10(3-4):123-4. PubMed ID: 3996439. Abstract: Most pyogenic liver abscesses appear to be 'not' in a 67Ga-citrate study; rarely, a 'warm' or 'cold' area may also be seen. We present a patient with a pyogenic liver abscess that had both 'cold' and 'hot' areas in the 67Ga-citrate study. This striking finding is probably related to the different stages of evolution of the abscess.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
