Overview
Tc-99m labeled anti-CD15 antibodies can be used in nuclear imaging to confirm appendicitis.
Other Imaging Findings
Nuclear Imaging
Nuclear imaging can be used to detect appendicitis in the following two conditions:
- Through a Tc-99m labeled anti-CD15 antibody
- When no safety issues prevent the use of antibodies.[1]
