Specificity of 99mTc-pertechnetate in scintigraphic diagnosis of Meckel s diverticulum: review of 100 cases Berquist TH; Nolan NG; Stephens DH; Carlson HCJ Nucl Med 1976[Jun]; 17 (6): 465-9Numerous reports in the recent literature have questioned the value of abdominal scanning with pertechnetate in the diagnosis of Meckel's diverticulum. In an attempt to evaluate further the specificity of pertechnetate in this condition, the clinical data and scintigrams of 100 patients with suspected Meckel's diverticulum were reviewed. The scintigram correctly identified Meckel's diverticulum before operation in seven of eight patients. One false-negative study occurred in 33 patients who underwent laparotomy. Conditions suggested as possible causes of false-positive studies (hydronephrosis, arteriovenous malformations, and intussusception) were found to give negative scans.|*Radionuclide Imaging[MESH]|*Technetium[MESH]|Adolescent[MESH]|Adult[MESH]|Aged[MESH]|Arteriovenous Malformations/diagnosis[MESH]|Child[MESH]|Child, Preschool[MESH]|Diagnosis, Differential[MESH]|False Negative Reactions[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Hydronephrosis/diagnosis[MESH]|Infant[MESH]|Intestinal Mucosa/metabolism[MESH]|Intussusception/diagnosis[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Meckel Diverticulum/*diagnosis[MESH]|Middle Aged[MESH] |
