title: Radionuclide imaging of a rectus sheath hematoma caused by insulin injections.
abstract: CT scanning, MRI, and ultrasonography are the imaging procedures of choice for the study of rectus sheath hematomas. A rectus sheath hematoma was evaluated scintigraphically after the intravenous administration of Tc-99m labeled RBC, which confirmed the hematoma, demonstrated the sites of bleeding, and revealed continued bleeding.
