title: [Indirect isotopic lymphography. Technic and clinical applications].
abstract: Interstitial lymphoscintigraphy is a diagnostic method useful in the staging and follow-up of several tumours as well as in the etiological evaluation of limb edema. It is a simple technique with minimal invasivity which can be performed even in those regions inaccesible to radiographic lymphography. Because of its great sensitivity and low specifity it requires careful interpretation.
