Radionuclide bone scanning.
Radionuclide bone scanning is the second most frequently performed radionuclide study in childhood. There are a wide variety of indications, many advantages, and few disadvantages. Functional as well as anatomical information is obtained.' Bone scanning is particularly valuable in the diagnosis of inflammatory conditions, trauma, and in the investigation of occult bone pain and vascular insult'...
متن کاملRadionuclide imaging of the painful hip arthroplasty: positron-emission tomography versus triple-phase bone scanning.
Two major complications of hip replacement are loosening and infection. Reliable differentiation between these pathological processes is difficult since both may be accompanied by similar symptoms. Our aim was to assess the diagnostic ability of triple-phase bone scanning (TPBS) and positron-emission tomography (PET) to detect and differentiate these complications in patients with a hip arthrop...
متن کاملComparison of radiography and radionuclide bone scanning in the detection of child abuse.
The battered child syndrome consists of a constellation of signs that may be either apparent or covert. Radiographic documentation of unexplained or difficult-to-detect fractures is an important means of establishing a basis for legal intervention in child abuse. One hundred ten children were evaluated with either radiographic surveys or bone scans, and 50 children had both roentgenograms and b...
متن کاملRadionuclide bone SPECT/CT in orthopaedics
Radionuclide 99mTc-MDP planar bone scan is the most commonly performed nuclear medicine procedure and may aid diagnosis of benign and malignant bone pathologies. 99mTc-MDP is injected intravenously and subsequently taken up by osteoblasts and incorporated into the bone matrix. In the process it acts as a marker for new bone formation, bone turnover and local vascularity. The high sensitivity of...
متن کاملRadionuclide Bone Scintigraphy: An Interesting Case Report
It is well established that Technetiummethylene diphosphonate (Tc MDP) whole body bone scintigraphy (WBBS) can demonstrate multiple lesions with increased radiotracer concentration in involved bone. But it is hard to differentiate multiple benign osteolytic lesions from disseminated bone metastases. Even combined with medical history and multiple imaging results, clinical diagnosis of metastati...
