Scintigraphic visualization of haemostatic and thromboembolic processes using 111Indium-labelled platelets. 1984

K G Schmidt, and J W Rasmussen

Five cases of scintigraphic imaging of haemostatic and thromboembolic processes after injection of autologous 111In-labelled platelets are presented. The site of a liver puncture, atherosclerotic plaques in the abdominal aorta, deep vein thrombi, pulmonary embolism and the tip of an indwelling venous catheter could be visualized. Activity measurements corresponding to atherosclerotic plaques suggest that an increased sensitivity of this method may be achieved by extending the investigation period to 4-5 days after injection of 111In platelets.

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.

D006487 Hemostasis The process which spontaneously arrests the flow of BLOOD from vessels carrying blood under pressure. It is accomplished by contraction of the vessels, adhesion and aggregation of formed blood elements (eg. ERYTHROCYTE AGGREGATION), and the process of BLOOD COAGULATION. Hemostases
