Nine patients were encountered with normal chest radiographs, but diffuse bilateral lung uptake of 67Ga-citrate. They were divided into three groups. The first consisted of 6 patients who had lymphoma or leukemia and had had multiple cycles of chemotherapy. Here, abnormal uptake may have resulted from a toxic effect of the drugs or from a low-grade, subclinical infectious process. The 2 patients in the second group were drug addicts and a subradiographic interstitial inflammatory reaction was probably responsible for abnormal uptake. The last patient had diffuse uptake of 67Ga-citrate throughout the lungs two weeks before lymphomatous infiltrates became radiographically visible.
有9例患者胸部X线片正常，但67Ga枸橼酸盐在双肺呈弥漫性摄取。他们被分为三组。第一组有6例患有淋巴瘤或白血病且接受过多个周期化疗的患者。在此，异常摄取可能是药物的毒性作用或低度亚临床感染过程所致。第二组的2例患者是吸毒者，肺部X线片下的间质性炎症反应可能是异常摄取的原因。最后1例患者在淋巴瘤浸润在X线片上可见前两周，其双肺67Ga枸橼酸盐呈弥漫性摄取。
