title: Localization of hemorrhage in a recurrent hemothorax using Tc-99m-sulfur colloid.
abstract: Tc99m-sulfur colloid scintigraphy has proven clinically useful in identifying gastrointestinal hemorrhages. The authors describe a patient with recurrent hemothorax under oral anticoagulation therapy in which Tc-99m-sulfur colloid imaging was used to determine the site of bleeding.
