AB  - Breast images with 99mTc-pertechnetate and 67Ga-citrate were obtained in a series of patients under study for breast cancer. These studies were compared with conventional mammography, xeroradiography, and pathologic findings and demonstrated good correlation.The three principal positions of breast scintigraphy described in the text are the cranio-caudal, lateral, and medial. It is hoped that this technique will prove useful in identifying malignant breast masses.
