Abstract

Reference is made to several indicative cases in a personal series. Their comparative examination with a scanner and a gamma camera computer showed that: a) noticeably different findings were given by the two methods with regard to cystic, neoplastic, and inflammatory lesions of the pancreas, whereas; b) computerised subtraction was much more sensitive in lesions due to cysts and pancreatitis, even though there was no significant difference between the two methods in the case of neoplasia.
