[The importance of radionuclide methods in the diagnosis of sarcoidosis and the determination of its activity].
Sclerotic changes are brought about rather early in case of sarcoidosis. Therefore, it is extremely important for the clinicians to assess a functional condition of the sarcoidosis patients' lungs, to locate the lesions and their extent and to have an idea about the process activity. To a certain degree, the answers to all these questions can be found by means of radionuclide methods using 133Xe, 99mTc and 67Ga. A complex of radioisotope investigations makes it possible to produce a proper assessment of external respiration and capillary blood flow in patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis, including the extent and activity of the process itself.
