Fibrinogen uptake scanning for diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis: a plea for standardization

Fibrinogen uptake scanning for diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis: a plea for standardization

V C Roberts. Br Med J. .

Abstract

From an examination of the factors affecting the diagnostic accuracy of the 125I-fibrinogen test for detecting deep vein thrombosis it is concluded that there is a greater possibility of error if postoperative counts are referred to the preoperative baseline rather than counts made immediately after operation. A method is proposed for reducing other errors caused by instrument mishandling.
