Popis: With use of multimillicurie amounts of technetium-99tn colloid and the Anger camera, anterior views of the liver can be produced with about 100,000 counts in twenty seconds or less. If obtained in full expiration and inspiration, these show change in hepatic shape or pliability. Among the authors' series of 75 proved cases, lack of pliability reliably indicated abnormality.
