Overview

Nuclear Imaging may be helpful in the diagnosis of Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS). Findings on 99m Tc sulfur colloid scanning suggestive of Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) include sulfur colloid uptake technetium-99m (99mTc) is increased (ie, hot) in the caudate lobe when compared to the rest of the liver, in which uptake may be normal, reduced, absent, or patchy, colloid may shift to the spleen and bone marrow, wedge-shaped focal peripheral defects are occasionally seen on imaging.
