An incidental finding of absent splenic uptake of autologous, indium-111-oxine-labeled leukocytes in an immunosuppressed renal transplant recipient was documented to be associated with functional asplenia based on absence of technetium-99m-sulfur colloid clearance by a morphologically normal spleen. The patient had recently suffered an episode of disseminated varicella infection that might have led to the development of functional asplenia.

D011877	Radionuclide Imaging	The production of an image obtained by cameras that detect the radioactive emissions of an injected radionuclide as it has distributed differentially throughout tissues in the body. The image obtained from a moving detector is called a scan, while the image obtained from a stationary camera device is called a scintiphotograph.
