The role of gallium-67 in the clinical evaluation of cancer
Abstract
This review is based primarily on historic data, and it examines the indications for and limitations of gallium-67 scanning in the evaluation of patients with neoplasms. The use of gallium-67 scans is discussed according to tumor type, and data from the most representative and comprehensive studies are included. The results described, some of which were obtained primarily with older imaging techniques, should be regarded as representing the minimum that can be expected from application of this imaging procedure.
