A method of radionuclide angiography and comparison with contrast aortography in the assessment of aorto-iliac disease.
Forty-four patients with symptoms of lower limb arterial insufficiency were examined by radionuclide angiography using 99Tcm in vivo red cell labelling and by contrast aortography. The results of the study indicate that radionuclide angiography may well have a useful role to play in determining the type of contrast study most appropriate for delineating the aortic-iliac segment.
