Abstract

278 patients with the cyst of pancreas, liver and kidneys diagnosed ultrasonographically have undergone the scintigraphic examination of their changes. In case of patients where transit of contents beyond the cyst limits has not been found, the results of volume obtained by 3 methods (the volume measured ultrasonographically volume drained and volume estimated by the method of radiomarker dilution) have been compared. The authors have proven that the best results have achieved in those patients where the drainage has been performed in the most accurate way. It means that the drained volume has been the closest to the actual volume which corresponds to that one achieved by the method of radiomarker dilution.
