Book Description:
This book emphasizes the tremendous value of pinhole scintigraphy in diagnosing nearly the whole spectrum of bone & joint diseases. Pinhole scintigraphy discloses anatomic & pathologic as well as chemical alterations in greater detail, permitting analytical interpretation & raising sensitivity. Infections, nonspecific bone inflammation, rheumatoid arthritis, seronegative spondyloarthropathies, rheumatic disorders, metabolic & endocrine bone diseases, trauma, & both primary tumors & metastases can be effectively & specifically examined. By improving sensitivity, many false-negative readings can be avoided in early bone metastasis, synovitis, enthesopathies, bone contusion, etc. rapidshare
