title: Positive In-111 WBC scan in a patient with ischemic ileocolitis and negative colonoscopies.
abstract: Early ischemic bowel disease may be apparent on In-111 WBC scan before endoscopic changes of the mucosa. This may indicate a subacute process. The case in point did have angiographic findings of ileocolitis despite repeated colonoscopy.
