The Clinical Utility of SPECT/CT Hybrid Imaging on Bleeding Meckel’s Diverticulum in Adults: A Case Report

Technetium-99m (99mTc) pertechnetate planar scintigraphy is the procedure of choice to localize ectopic gastric mucosa. On the other hand, single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) imaging comes up with more precise landmarks and scintigraphic findings. We present a case where SPECT/CT provided …
