The clinical scope and potential of isotope angiology.
Arterial imaging using a gamma-camera to follow an intravenously injected bolus of 98Tcm has been performed in over 200 patients. The technique has been found useful in the evaluation of emergency vascular problems, in routine cases where arteriography cannot be performed or is inadvisable and in the assessment and follow-up of patients with intermittent claudication and digital vessel disease.
