Lung scanning with macroaggregated albumin I was carried out in 128 patients. The technique appears to be without hazard. It is particularly useful in the detection of pulmonary embolism, but the pattern is non-specific and changes occur in other cardio-respiratory diseases. On the basis of these observations pulmonary scanning is regarded as a useful adjunct in the study of pulmonary embolism, but it cannot serve as a specific diagnostic procedure since similar patterns of scan may be found in many conditions.
对128例患者进行了用大颗粒聚合白蛋白I进行肺部扫描。该技术似乎没有危害。它在检测肺栓塞方面特别有用,但扫描图像是非特异性的,且在其他心肺疾病中也会出现变化。基于这些观察结果,肺部扫描被认为是研究肺栓塞的一种有用辅助手段,但它不能作为一种特异性诊断方法,因为在许多情况下可能会发现相似的扫描图像。
