Observations on Tc-99m-Erythrocyte Venography in Normal Subjects and in Patients with Deep Vein Thrombosis

Blood pool imaging of the lower limbs with Tc-99m-erythrocytes demonstrates the deep venous channels of the leg. The radionuclide image of deep vein thrombosis, by this method, appears sufficiently distinctive to suggest that Tc-99m-erythrocyte venography may be a useful screening examination for deep vein patency.
