Abstract
Demonstration of functioning heterotopic gastric mucosa with 99mTc-pertechnetate SPECT is reported. Abnormal tracer uptake was shown conclusively with SPECT but not with planar imaging. When a Meckel's diverticulum is suspected, we suggest SPECT be performed if the results of planar scintigraphy are equivocal and that it be considered if there is a high clinical suspicion and planar imaging is normal.Entities:
