Two young adults and 22 children with upper abdominal masses were evaluated by hepatic scintigraphy and gray scale ultrasonography. Abnormal static scintigrams were subdivided into two groups on the basis of tumor vascularity as shown on the initial dynamic portion of the study. Ultrasonic evaluation resulted in four categories: uniformly densely reflective, densely reflective with internal sonolucencies, poorly reflective with some internal components, and sonolucent. Images of liver perfusion and radionuclide accumulation (scintigraphy) plus images of internal architecture (ultrasonography) allow accurate assessment of intra- or juxtahepatic masses. The combined information was more useful than that from either study alone.
对两名青少年和22名患有上腹部肿块的儿童进行了肝脏闪烁扫描和灰阶超声检查。根据研究初始动态部分显示的肿瘤血管情况，将异常静态闪烁扫描图分为两组。超声评估结果分为四类：均匀致密回声、有内部无回声区的致密回声、有一些内部成分的低回声以及无回声。肝脏灌注和放射性核素积聚图像（闪烁扫描）加上内部结构图像（超声检查）能够准确评估肝内或肝旁肿块。综合信息比单独一项检查所提供的信息更有用。
