LABELLED RED BLOOD CELL SCAN
This scan is a MUGA scan except that the camera focuses on the abdomen and not the heart. So, stannous follows by technetium is used.
You will see the blood vessels, the liver and the spleen in the picture ass well as the bladder because not all the technetium gets bound - some gets excreted into the bladder. You should not see anything else in the abdomen - if you do then that's the leak of blood into the bowel.
