Title: Radionuclide evaluation of complications after metatarsal osteotomy and implant arthroplasty of the foot

Journal Article · · J. Foot Surg.; (United States)
OSTI ID:7133146
; ; ;

This paper discusses radionuclide imaging as it applies to bone and implant foot surgery. Where necessary, studies and information from published literature have been extrapolated in an attempt to apply them in differentiating between normal and abnormal healing osteotomies and implant prosthetics.
