Abstract
Scintigraphy with technetium-99m labeled antigranulocyte antibodies in cluding planar and SPECT imaging demonstrated areas of inflammation in bone and soft tissue of the thigh of a 38-year-old man who had a frac ture of the femur 20 years earlier. The clinical potential of this ima ging modality in the diagnostic assessment of inflammatory diseases is discussed.
