- W2019313984 abstract "Pneumocystis carinil pneumonia (PCP) is an Interstitia pneumonia of protozoan etiology. It was first reported in the United States in 1955 and had been seen rarely in previously healthy persons over six months of age. The increasing incidence of acquired immunologic deficiency syndrome (AIDS) among homosexual males has resulted in a high incidence of PCP and, with It, a mortality rate of 50% in the first year. Ga-67 citrate imaging of the lungs has proved to be a cost effective, highly sensitive study for the evaluation of the patient with minimal symptoms or borderline laboratory findings. In the past 18 months, 54% of the gallium scans at our institution were performed on homosexual males with AIDS-related or AIDS-suspicious symptom. 57% of these were to rule out PCP. PCP usually presents as a diffuse pattern of uptake in the lungs that approaches or exceeds the brightness of the liver. However, previous chemotherapy, recurrent disease or very early disease may not demonstrate the characterstic pattern of diffuse pulmonary uptake. Using a strict Imaging protocol and a grading scale of zero to +4, all studies read as no uptake subsequently proved to be true negatives. In those studies demonstrating +2 or greater uptake, the test had a true positive value of 95%." @default.
