Abstract
Using a scintillation camera, lateral views of the liver may be obtained with the patient in positions other than the left lateral decubitus required for rectilinear imaging. The use of the supine position induces an artifactual change in the lateral image which could easily be mistaken for a space-occupying mass. Probable mechanisms are discussed.
