The use of Ga-67 scintigraphy (Ga) in prostate inflammatory diseases may be restricted by the difficulty in distinguishing between the accumulation of Ga-67-citrate (Ga-citrate) in the lesion and feces. The diagnosis of prostatic abscess has been mainly made by other radiologic methods without scintigraphic studies and no finding of Ga has been reported. This patient demonstrated that coordinating the findings of Ga-citrate accumulation can be helpful in making a prompt diagnosis of a possibly fatal prostatic abscess, especially in those patients with poorly defined clinical symptoms and high risk factors.
镓-67闪烁扫描法（Ga）在前列腺炎症性疾病中的应用可能会受到限制，因为难以区分病变部位镓-67柠檬酸盐（Ga-柠檬酸盐）的积聚与粪便。前列腺脓肿的诊断主要通过其他放射学方法进行，尚无闪烁扫描研究的报道，也未发现有关Ga的相关情况。该患者表明，结合Ga-柠檬酸盐积聚的表现有助于对可能致命的前列腺脓肿做出快速诊断，尤其是对于那些临床症状不明确且存在高风险因素的患者。
