J.-S. Chiu, J.-E. Tzeng, Y.-F. Wang Infection hunter: gallium scintigraphy for hemodialysis access graft infection J.-S. Chiu, J.-E. Tzeng, Y.-F.

Figure 1 Radionuclide imaging of infection. Gallium scintigraphy demonstrated prominent visualization of the hemodialysis access graft (arrow) in the left thigh. Kidney International 2006 69, DOI: (10.1038/sj.ki.5000413) Copyright © 2006 International Society of Nephrology Terms and Conditions

Figure 2 Pathological findings. A pathological section of the resected hemodialysis access graft revealed a graft vascular wall (G) containing acute inflammatory cells. Aggregated inflammatory cells occluding the vascular lumen as a thrombus (T) also were noted. (Hematoxylin and eosin, original magnification ×400.)
