Abstract
This study of 36 patients, 27 with sarcoidosis, confirms the avidity of mediastinal and pulmonary sarcoidosis for gallium-67. This procedure may prove useful in distinguishing enlarged hilar vessels from lymph nodes. Gallium scanning proved unsuccessful, however, in detection of clinically important extrathoracic sarcoidosis and appears to have limited applicability in the diagnosis of thoracic sarcoidosis.Entities:
