  • Title: Lung scan detection of SVC clot with collateral flow to liver.
    Author: Schwartz M, Swayne LC, Macaulay RD, Schwartz JR.
    Journal: J Nucl Med; 1996 Nov; 37(11):1826-7. PubMed ID: 8917184.
    Abstract:
    We present a case of visualization of a clot in the superior vena cava with collateral flow to the liver during a lung perfusion scan. A digital venogram performed after injection through the right central venous line confirmed the presence of a clot in the superior vena cava with retrograde flow into the azygous venous system.
