Methods 24 cases of SS (SS group) and 7 cases of normal control (normal group) were tested with salivary gland scintigraphy using 99mTCO4-, and 11 cases of patients were re-tested after treatment. Results The introjection fraction (IF) of salivary gland had no statistical difference between the two groups, while the evacuation fraction (EF) was lower in SS group than in normal group (P
