Imaging of an actively bleeding aortoduodenal fistula.
    Clinical nuclear medicine, 1985, Volume: 10, Issue:5

    Diagnosis of gastrointestinal bleeding remains a difficult problem. Radionuclides have been used widely to detect active GI bleeding. A case of actively bleeding aortoduodenal fistula detected on radionuclide imaging is presented.

Rupture of a spontaneous aortoduodenal fistula visualized with Tc-RBC scintigraphy.
    Journal of nuclear medicine : official publication, Society of Nuclear Medicine, 1983, Volume: 24, Issue:4

    We present what we believe is the first reported case of a spontaneous aortoduodenal fistula, with massive rupture into the duodenum during the performance of a radionuclide study of gastrointestinal bleeding. Our experience suggests that nuclear scintigraphy with labeled red blood cells can help in the diagnosis of this disorder by demonstrating both the presence of an abdominal aortic aneurysm and bleeding in the gut.
