The correlation between radionuclide liver scan interpretation and autopsy findings in 94 patients is presented. All patients had a known primary malignancy and the postmortem examinations were performed within 28 days of the scan. In 81% of the cases, the scans were correctly interpreted. There was a 15% rate of false-positive readings and a 21% rate of false-negative interpretations. Metastatic deposits less than 2 cm in diameter were the most frequent source of false-negative scans.
本文呈现了94例患者放射性核素肝脏扫描结果与尸检结果之间的相关性。所有患者均患有已知的原发性恶性肿瘤，且尸检在扫描后28天内进行。在81%的病例中，扫描结果得到了正确解读。假阳性读数率为15%，假阴性解读率为21%。直径小于2厘米的转移灶是假阴性扫描最常见的原因。
