ABSTRACT

Images obtained with 99mTc-labeled red blood cells were compared with 99mTc-pertechnetate scans in 26 patients with primary and secondary brain tumors, intracerebral infarcts, and hemorrhage. The results indicated that the contribution of blood pool radioactivity to a positive brain scan was minor.
