Image diagnosis of liver cancer by nuclear medicine
Description
Scintigraphies with sup(99m)Tc-phytate and 67Ga-citrate are valuable in the diagnosis of liver cancer, and subtraction scintigraphy is useful in a higher degree of diagnostic accuracy and preliminary diagnosis of the liver. In determining therapeutic procedures, it is necessary to study findings in the normal lobe of the liver according to the location of tumors. Serological screening of α-fetoprotein and thyroxine-binding globulin is considered useful in the early diagnosis of liver cancer. (Namekawa, K.)
