Eleven patients with recent kidney transplants have undergone serial pelvic imaging after autologous platelet labelling with indium-111. Rejection was accompanied by marked platelet deposition in the graft, whereas acute tubular necrosis was characterized by minimal platelet accumulation. The method has been quantified by comparing counts over the graft to counts from a similar area on the opposite site, and appears to distinguish between the two main causes of renal failure after transplantation. In addition, complications of transplant surgery may be demonstrated.
11例近期接受肾移植的患者在自体血小板用铟-111标记后接受了系列盆腔成像检查。排斥反应伴有移植肾内明显的血小板沉积，而急性肾小管坏死的特征是血小板积聚极少。通过将移植肾的计数与对侧相似区域的计数进行比较，对该方法进行了量化，该方法似乎可以区分移植后肾衰竭的两种主要原因。此外，还可以显示移植手术的并发症。
