Ga-67 citrate scans were performed in a 17-year-old female patient after bone marrow transplantation for acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Ga-67 accumulated in salivary glands in which chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVH) was demonstrated pathologically. Ga-67 scan may be a sensitive and noninvasive test for detecting and monitoring the Sicca syndrome induced by chronic GVH.
