Title: Indium-111 WBC detection of emphysematous gastritis in pancreatitis

Abstract

We present a case of emphysematous gastritis initially detected with 111In oxine-labeled white blood cell scintigraphy and subsequently confirmed by computed tomography. Early aggressive antibiotic and supportive therapy resulted in a successful clinical outcome.
