We compared planar and tomographic selective spleen scintigraphy using heat-damaged red cells with subtracted planar colloid scintigraphy, and showed that the most sensitive method was tomographic selective splenic scintigraphy. The incidence of splenosis was 58% with this method, the other techniques detecting abnormalities in 21% and 26% of the patients.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessConcise communicationSplenic functionSplenectomyTraumaManagementRuptureAdultsScanArticleA1994MU685000082-s2.0-00280848821151174928124888RadiologyNuclear medicine & Medical imagingSulfurAdultDiagnostic accuracyDiagnostic valueEctopic tissueErythrocyteFemaleHumanIntermethod comparisonMaleScintiscanningSpleen injurySpleen scintiscanningSplenectomy
