Repeat Scintigraphy of the Internal Mammary Lymph Nodes in Rabbits

Abstract

Rabbits were subjected to different combinations of scintigraphy of the internal mammary lymph nodes, fractionated irradiation, and surgical trauma to the chest wall. No influence could be demonstrated on the image at repeat scintigraphy of the internal mammary nodes. Microscopic changes in the lymph nodes and vessels were relatively slight and inconstant.
