Scintigraphic image obtained 48 hours after injection of 1-mCi 111In DTPA into the medication reservoir reveals nonpatency of the catheter system with no intrathecal contrast visualized. Scintigraphic image obtained 48 hours after injection of 1-mCi 111In DTPA into the medication reservoir reveals nonpatency of the catheter system with no intrathecal contrast visualized. The area of photopenia represents the position of the pump (yellow outline). Radioactivity within the pump represents the medication reservoir (blue outline). Radiopharmaceutical is observed within the proximal catheter (red dotted line) and ends abruptly (red arrow). Note that the etiology of the nonpatency of the catheter cannot be determined from this study. A.C. Miracle et al. AJNR Am J Neuroradiol 2011;32:1158-1164 ©2011 by American Society of Neuroradiology
