SummaryBone marrow scintigraphy after the application of indium 111 In was compared with the results of bone marrow puncture in 18 patients with Hodgkin's disease treated with radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy. Agreement was found in 85% of the cases. When the results of bone marrow puncture were compared with the general state of haemopoiesis estimated scintigraphically agreement was found in only 65%. Bone marrow scintigraphy gives a more detailed knowledge of the general state of haemopoiesis and serves as a guide for the control of therapy with cytostatics and/or irradiation.
