In diagnosing salivary gland diseases, sialography has been used since 1931. But, this technique has some difficulties in obtaining a functional diagnosis. According to the remarkable development of nuclear medicine, scintigraphy can be applied in the dynamic study of salivary gland diseases, in addition to the static studies. In this report, a case of xerostomia observed in a 27-year-old male was examined. This case was examined with ^<99m>TcO^-_4 and scinticamera by using the technique of dynamic image proccessing. Some discussions were added to the roentogenographic findings and scintigraphic observations. The results obtained were as follows ; 1) This case was diagnosed as xerostomia caused by a salivary stone in the right submaxillary duct, but the function of the gland tissue itself was suggested to have no abnormalities. 2) The so-called "twice stimulation technique" was not so useful compared to that of tradional one. 3) Serial scintigraphy and dynamic image proccessing were highly useful in diagnosing the function of salivary gland diseases.
