Technetium-99m pertechnetate imaging in diagnosis of Meckel's diverticulum.
Leonidas, J. C., and Germann, D. R. (1974). Archives of Disease in Childhood, 49, 21. Technetium-99m pertechnetate imaging in diagnosis of Meckel's diverticulum. Abdominal imaging after intravenous injection of 99mTc pertechnetate is a simple, safe, and noninvasive diagnostic procedure to show ectopic gastric mucosa, which is present in most cases of symptomatic Meckel's diverticulum. It was pe...
متن کاملDelayed imaging for detection of Meckel's diverticulum in Tc-99m pertechnetate scintigraphy
Tc-99m pertechnetate scintigraphy is the modality of choice for diagnosis of Meckel's diverticulum. Interpretation of Meckel's scan identifies a focal area of radiopharmaceutical uptake in the anterior abdomen similar to normal gastric mucosa. The activity must be of the same pattern and intensity as gastric uptake. We present a 13-year-old patient with gastrointest...

متن کاملMeckel's diverticulum in infants and children; technetium-99m pertechnetate scintigraphy and clinical findings.
Meckel's diverticulum (MD) is the most common congenital gastrointestinal anomaly. About 50% of diverticulae contain ectopic gastric mucosa. Gastric mucosal secretions can cause peptic ulceration resulting in pain, bleeding and perforation. Technetium-99m ((99m)Tc) pertechnetate scintigraphy is helpful in diagnosing ectopic gastric mucosa. We have conducted a retrospective analysis of scintigra...
