Plague and the gallium scan: Case report.
Inflammation in the right axillary lymph nodes and the meninges was detected by 67Gacitrate scans in an 11-year-old boy with Yersinia pestis infection. This case provides another example of 67Ga localizing to areas of infection, indicating potential utility in future cases of bubonic plague.
