Technetium-99m Red Blood Cell Venography in Upper Extremity Deep Venous Thrombosis

A SILVERSTEIN, ELLIOTT H. TURBINER

Open publisher page 7 citations

Abstract

The efficacy of Tc-99m RBC venography has been demonstrated with respect to the study of lower extremity deep venous thrombosis. A case is presented where Tc-99m RBC venography was used to study the upper as well as lower extremities in a patient with upper extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) who was found to have pulmonary embolism.
