Increased pulmonary technetium-99m DTPA accumulation in a patient with Goodpasture's syndrome
Description
Goodpasture's syndrome is characterized by the triad of glomerulonephritis, intra-alveolar pulmonary hemorrhage, and presence of antiglomerular basement membrane antibodies. It has been shown earlier that intra-alveolar hemorrhage can be detected with radioisotopic techniques. A patient with Goodpasture's syndrome showing increased pulmonary accumulation of Tc-99m DTPA with no evidence of pulmonary hemorrhage is presented
