title: [Radionuclide and thermographic diagnosis of head and neck neoplasms].
abstract: Radionuclide and thermographic studies using 67Ga-citrate and 111In-bleomycin were performed in 129 patients with laryngeal cancer, chemodectoma of the neck, retinoblastoma, rhabdomyosarcoma of the orbital and facial soft tissues and cancer of the tongue. Elevated amounts of the radiopharmaceutical drug were found in patients with tumors. In thermographic studies higher thermogenic activity corresponding to the tumor was noted. Radionuclide thermographic studies extend diagnostic opportunities for head and neck tumors.
