The effect of contrast lymphangiography on localization of 67Ga-citrate.
Oily lymphangiographic contrast material introduced prior to total-body 67Ga-citrate scanning may be responsible for accumulation of the radionuclide within the lungs. The possibility of false-positive examinations suggests caution in the interpretation of the scan which evidences this finding. When possible, gallium scintiscans should be scheduled prior to contrast lymphangiography.
