Abstract
We reported the results of brain scintigraphy in 48 cases using 113mIn-DTPA kit that can be prepared at only one step operation.
In 48 cases, brain tumors was confirmed in 19 cases, non-tumorous intracranial diseases was 7 cases, normal and unconfirmed was 22 cases.
The ratio of detection was seemed not to differ fromer reports.
As the side effect cannot be recognized at any case and the complicated operation of fromer 113mIn-DTPA preparation is not needed, this kit is a very convenience preparation method in routine test.
