The stripe sign in perfusion lung scanning refers to an area of focal hypoperfusion that fails
to extend to the pleural surface, leaving a peripheral rim of perfused parenchyma. Although …

Morphologic changes and ventilation abnormalities in the lung that resulted in the peripheral
perfusion stripe (the stripe sign) on pulmonary perfusion scintigrams were studied in six …

DISCUSSION The normal separation of the pulmonary lobes by the pleura cannot be
detected by using imaging devices because of limited spatial resolution (, 1). However, an …

Using a virtual model of the lungs, we investigated the nature of the 'stripe sign'which is
sometimes encountered in pulmonary scintigraphy. A model of the segmental anatomy of …

The most common indication for radionuclide imaging of lungs is the evaluation of
suspected pulmonary thromboembolism (PE). Scintigraphically PE classically produces …

A stripe sign in pulmonary perfusion imaging is reported to be predictive of the absence of
pulmonary embolism in the specific area of the stripe sign, and generally does not change …

A patient with high clinical suspicion for pulmonary embolism underwent a diagnostic
