[The use of scintigraphy with labelled leukocytes: our experience].
1993
: The authors describe various applications of scintigraphy with labeled leukocytes and its value in the diagnosis of gut diseases such as Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis and related complications. Furthermore, the study of vascular prosthesis infection, cryptogenetic fever and abdominal sepsis, three cases of which are herein reported, is facilitated. The method, in conjunction with endoscopy and traditional radiology, revealed to be of great value in terms of sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of the aforementioned diseases. Therefore, the use of such method is encouraged in all those cases of abdominal sepsis of uncertain interpretation and in the evaluation of vascular prosthesis infection.
