Abstract
We present an experimental model for the study of dual isotope subtraction techniques that uses inexpensive, disposable plastic laboratory containers, available in many microbiology laboratories. The model can simulate either a subphrenic abscess, where the abnormal activity is adjacent to a normal structure, or a parathyroid adenoma, where the abnormality is within the normal structure. Representative containers and example images are illustrated.
