골반염에 Tc-99m ciprofloxacin을 이용한 이미지

초록

The clinical diagnosis of pelvic inflammatory disease is inexact. There are multiple potential symptoms and signs ascribable to pelvic inflammatory disease as predicted by areas of inflammatory involvement. No symptoms or signs are pathognomonic for PID. The authors describe SPECT images of patients with PID that were obtained using a Tc-99m-labeled antibiotic, ciprofloxacin. Those of the patients with PID showed foci of significantly increased uptake in the regions corresponding to the areas of clinical symptoms.
