The Utility of SPECT Liver-Spleen Imaging in the Evaluation of a Possible Accessory Spleen

摘要

A case where an x-ray CT examination showed the existence of an unidentified perisplenic mass is presented. This mass was determined to be an accessory spleen after an evaluation with Tc-99m labeled sulfur colloid. This report describes a clinical indication for the use of SPECT imaging of a patient when a mass of uncertain significance is discovered.
