Scintigraphy and arteriography in the diagnosis of diseases of the liver.

Arteriograms and scans performed over a five-year period on 60 patients with suspect hepatic disease have been reviewed. The diagnosis was proved in every case by biopsy, autopsy or laparotomy. Scintigraphy correctly predicted the presence or absence of disease in 75% and arteriography in 75% of cases. Fifty-four of the patients had hepatic disease. In 81% of these the accurate diagnosis of diffuse or localized disease was made by one or both techniques. Arteriography is preferred for the detection of localized lesions, but diffuse processes are more readily demonstrated by scintigraphy.
