Correlation of splenic function with the splenic uptake rate of Tc-colloids

The splenic uptake rate of Tc-sulphur colloid or Tc-tin colloid was measured and found to correlate well with splenic function. The normal tracer uptake rate was 0.0002/s-0.0006/s (measured uptake rate divided by measured injected activity). Lower values indicated hyposplenism (sensitivity = 0.97, s...
