Investigation of the Mechanism of False Positive 125I‐Labelled Fibrinogen Scans
Abstract
S ummary . When 125 I‐fibrinogen scanning is used for the early detection of venous thrombosis, comparison with venography has shown a small percentage of abnormal scans associated with normal venograms. The mechanism of this discrepancy was investigated in an experimental model. Venous thrombosis was produced in 56 dogs using stasis and local thrombin.
