Popis: SummaryLiver scans were performed on 100 patients with different liver diseases. In the first group (80) this was followed by surgical or histologic confirmation, or both. In the second group (20) evidence of a primary carcinomatous lesion was available prior to scanning.The false positive and negative results in the first group accounted for 10% of the examined cases. Nineteen of the 20 cases of the second group had positive liver scans, compatible with the diagnosis of metastatic carcinoma of the liver.Liver scanning can be very helpful when interpreted skillfully.
