Abstract
This report describes a useful application of (99m)Tc-pertechnetate abdominal scintigraphy (Meckel's scan) in the assessment of gastric viability after corrosive injury. The Meckel's scan provided information about residual gastric mucosal function and prognosis in a less invasive manner than more usual methods.Entities:
