Bone scanning with technetium /sup 99m/Tc polyphosphate in tuberculous osteomyelitis

Abstract

Bone scans in 7 patients with tuberculosis have indicated bony involvement in 3. This was unsuspected in 2 and in all 3 radiographic correlation has been obtained. The present ready availability of more modern bone scanning agents and their safety is important to remember. They provide an elegant and sensitive, if non-specific, index of bone disease.
