111In Desferal: a new radiopharmaceutical for abscess detection.
Desferal was labeled with 111In and its distribution was studied in normal mice, rabbits bearing turpentine-induced abscesses, and rats bearing Staphylococcus aureus-induced abscesses. The results indicate that 111In Desferal may be used in abscess detection and localization.
