title: [Early diagnosis and therapy of deep venous thrombosis with 111 indium labeled platelets].
abstract: Clinical assessment of platelet scintigraphy by using autologous platelet labeled with 111-indium oxine to detect thrombotic activity for deep vein thrombosis. Platelet accumulation on scintigrams had a tendency to correlate with aggravation of acute thrombotic symptoms in deep vein thrombosis. This method was a useful procedure to make early diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis by detecting of abnormal accumulation of platelet. In addition, appropriate thrombolytic and anticoagulant therapy resulted in reduced platelet accumulation in conjunction with improvement of acute clinical symptoms. Thus, platelet scintigraphy could be available to evaluate thrombotic activity and might be useful for determining the optimal indications of thrombolytic and anticoagulation therapies for acute deep vein thrombosis. On the other hand, another kind of scintigraphy might be inevitable especially for detection of the pulmonary embolism. Anticoagulation therapy is also effective for pulmonary embolism.
