Description Gallium 67 scintigraphy is frequently used in the diagnostic evaluation of sarcoidosis. In the absence of a classic uptake pattern, results are commonly reported as "increased" without further categorization. This study investigates correlation of intensity of lacrimal gallium uptake with histopathologic evidence of sarcoidosis.
