Abstract
An In-111 leukocyte scan was performed in a cirrhotic patient with ascitic fluid infection to rule out an abdominal abscess. Scintigraphy showed localized uptake in the area between the liver and right lung 30 minutes after reinjection of the labeled cells. The 24-hour study was negative. No purulent collection was demonstrated in any location.
