Description

Suspecting malignant procedures, both livers ultrasonography and scintigraphy (applying sup(99m)Tc-phytate) were carried out in 25 patients. The results obtained agreed in 18 cases and differed in 7 cases. The difference was especially significant in the diagnosis of malignant lymphomas: in 5 out of 9 cases the two methods gave different results. It is concluded that ultrasonography and scintigraphy complete but do not substitute each other. (L.E.)
