| pubmed-article:6478719 | pubmed:abstractText | A patient with chronic osteomyelitis had surgery performed between the early and delayed images of an In-111 granulocyte scan. The early images showed no uptake, while the delayed images demonstrated marked soft tissue uptake, which was felt to be secondary to the inflammation of the intervening surgery. It was concluded that granulocytes, when labeled with In-111, remain viable and can respond to inflammation that occurs after their injection. | lld:pubmed |
