The authors describe a technique for rapid, convenient in vivo labeling of circulating erythrocytes with 99mTc and the application of this technique to the evaluation of abdominal aortic aneurysms. Dynamic perfusion images and equilibrium blood pool images were obtained in 9 patients with documented aneurysm, and 7 of them indicated an aneurysm on the radionuclide study.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
