[Clinical value of polyposition quantitative 99mTc-pyrophosphate and 99mTc-sulfur colloid scintigraphy in assessing the degree of spreading of tumorous process in lymphogranulomatosis].
To assess the degree of tumor proliferation radionuclide studies were performed in 187 patients with lymphogranulomatosis. Scintigraphy was conducted with 99mTc-pyrophosphate and 99mTc-sulfur colloid on gammer chambers FO GAMMA LFOV and OH 110 subsequently followed by processing a scintigraphic image on special-purpose computers CDP 11/34 and OH DC 160. The signs of bone affection revealed by 99mTc-pyrophosphate were supported in 86% of cases roentgenotomographically and histologically. A correlation between scintigraphic findings and the results of morphological studies in 45 patients showed a coincidence of the results in 93% of the cases with scintigraphy of the liver and in 81% of cases with radionuclide examination of the spleen by 99mTc-sulfur colloid. A statistical analysis has indicated that scintigraphic findings are consistent with histological ones qualitatively, the probability value being p > 0.999 (X2 = 15.35).
