title = "SCINTIGRAPHIC DETECTION OF ATHEROSCLEROTIC LESIONS AND VENOUS THROMBI IN MAN BY INDIUM-111-LABELLED AUTOLOGOUS PLATELETS",
abstract = "Accumulation of autologous platelets labelled with indium-111 at sites of atherosclerosis or venous thrombosis was demonstrated by scintigraphy in three patients. The lesions detected were bilateral ulcerated carotid-artery plaques, iliofemoral venous thrombosis, and renal-vein thrombosis. This technique shows promise as a non-invasive means of diagnosing focal atherosclerotic and thrombotic lesions.",
