[Cisternography with 111Indium-DTPA (author's transl)].
The experiences of more than 200 cisternographic examination with 111Indium-DTPA are reported. The radiopharmaceutical was tolerated without adverse reactions and the suboccipital intrathecal injection more appropriate than the lumbar. With 111In-DTPA excellent scans were obtained up to 48 h after application. 111In is compared with other radiopharmaceuticals for cisternography. The cisternography remains valuable as an additional examination of pneumencephalography and cranial computerized tomography.
