Pulmonary gallium-67 uptake in amiodarone pneumonitis.

W J van Rooij, S C van der Meer, E A van Royen, N van Zandwijk, J I Darmanata.   

Abstract

Three patients are presented suffering from interstitial pneumonitis caused by amiodarone. Pulmonary Ga-67 uptake occurred in all three. There appeared to be a discrepancy between the scintigraphic and radiographic findings in two patients. Gallium-67 lung scintigraphy may offer an early, sensitive indicator for amiodarone pneumonitis.
