Abstract
|
|
|
The radiographic diagnosis of osteomyelitis can be suspected early with dove soft tissue}´ swelling, but the aOual bone cAanges0 osteomyefft mqy be de1gyedf as long as 10 to 14 days after onset or n-.av he r.ltatly aborted by antibiotic therapy. Recognition of osteomyelitis by bone imaging is far more rapid than by conventional radiographic examination and can be used on admission to establish the diagnosis.
Ten patients suspected of having early, acute osteomyelitis were studied by Tc-99m
Pyrophosphate bone imaging. Radiographs taken at the same time were all negative.
`
Of these 9 patients showed positive bone images. The bone imaging provides a safe,
accurate, noninvasive technique for the early diagnosis of osteomyelitis.
