title: Radionuclide Meckelogram with particular reference to false-positive results.
abstract: Abdominal imaging 99mTc-pertechnetate is a most sensitive and noninvasive procedure for detecting Meckels diverticulum. However, false-positive results are unavoidable. We report two in which false-positive results were obtained and present a summary of reported false-positive results.
