Additional SPECT/CT in Determination of Gastrointestinal Bleeding Site in Scintigraphy
Additional SPECT/CT in Determination of Gastrointestinal Bleeding Site in Scintigraphy
The aim of this case series is to decide the diagnostic value of the additional SPECT/CT imaging during gastrointestinal bleeding site definition by scintigraphy as well as to determine the time point to perform. The outcomes of the patient included in this case series revealed that the 24th hour imaging might bear false positive findings of gastrointestinal bleeding and early SPECT/CT should be preferred. Additional findings in CT proportion of the study must be carefully interpreted in patients with known primary intraabdominal malignancy.
