概要

The improved ^<67>Ga computer scintigraphy was applied to the diagnosis of parametrial infiltration of cervical cancer and its diagnostic significance was studied by the objective reading that an attempt was made to classify the uptake of radioactivity. The picture from computer scintigrams was clearer than that of the conventional scintiphotos and made the reading possible. The accumulation was classified into the five types in terms of shape, spreading and concentration, and these types were studied by comparing with the histologic finding and the intraoperative finding. Each types showed its own extent of parametrial infiltration and lymph metastasis, and indicates the difficulty of the operation. Hence, the method of diagnosing carcinoma of the cervix uteri by ^<67>Ga scintigraphy and by reading the classified accumulation on the scintigrams so obtained may be considered contributory to improving the staging of the malignancy and also of significance in judging operability of the carcinoma.
