The accuracy of placental localisation by radioisotopic scanning using 99mTc-labelled red blood cells has been estimated in 20 patients. The results have been correlated with the findings at delivery by direct and indirect methods. The accuracy of results regarding upper and lower segment insertion of the placenta was 90 % in the present study.

Die Genauigkeit der Lokalisierung der Plazenta mittels 99mTc-markierten Erythrozyten und Szintigraphie wurde bei 20 Patienten bestimmt. Die Ergebnisse wurden mit jenen direkten und indirekten Methoden bei der Geburt verglichen. Die Genauigkeit der Diagnose einer Insertion der Plazenta im oberen und unteren Segment betrug in dieser Untersuchung 90%.
