A method of estimating spleen mass from the posterior and left lateral views of the radionuclide photoscans is described. When only the posterior view is available, a modification of this technique can be used. The methods are independent of configuration, require few measurements, and involve only one equation. The results are reproducible and correlate well with values determined at postmortem examination.
