Prediction of human spleen size by computer analysis of splenic scintigrams

JG Roberts, ML Wisbey, RG Newcombe, KG Leach and M Baum

A method of assessing spleen size from splenic scintigraphs obtained using autologous heat damaged 99Tcm labelled red cells is described. The method depends on a "computed volume" estimate. The method has a correlation coefficient of 989 with the exsanguinated weight ofthe spleen after splenectomy and has been shown to have an accuracysuperior to methods previously described.
