title: Technetium-pertechnetate uptake by ectopic antral mucosa. An experimental study.
abstract: The ability of ectopically placed fundic mucosa and retained antral mucosa to concentrate technetium has previously been demonstrated. The ability of ectopically placed antral mucosa to concentrate technetium was investigated. The denervated antrum implanted into the colon concentrated technetium in 5 dogs. However, this response was significantly less than that of parietal cell-containing mucosa (P less than 0.005) of the stomach. Technetium scanning may be useful in detecting ectopic and retained antral mucosa.
