The authors of this work present two patients, diagnosed with lymphoma and prostate cancer, referred to nuclear medicine department for a gallium-67 scan and a bone scan, respectively. The abnormal accumulation of the radioactivity gave rise suspicion for possible other pathologies. Successive computed tomographic imaging revealed that the patients had had Chilaiditi's syndrome. The authors present these cases to draw attention for the possibility of misinterpretation of the scans due to distribution of radioactivity in this syndrome.
这项研究的作者介绍了两名分别被诊断为淋巴瘤和前列腺癌的患者，他们分别被转诊至核医学科进行镓-67扫描和骨扫描。放射性物质的异常聚集引发了对可能存在其他病理情况的怀疑。后续的计算机断层扫描成像显示，这两名患者患有奇莱迪蒂综合征。作者展示这些病例是为了提醒注意由于该综合征中放射性物质的分布而可能导致扫描结果误判的情况。
