Description

This is a report on the use of skeletal scintigraphy in skull injury caused by power current (heavy current). Nuclear medicine offers the advantage compared with X-ray technique of early and safe assessment of the vitality of the injured bone. This is of course of great value for selecting the appropriate therapy. (orig.)

Abstract (German)

Es wird ueber den Einsatz der Skelettszintigraphie bei einem Fall von Starkstromverletzung des Schaedels berichtet. Der Vorteil der Nuklearmedizin gegenueber dem Roentgen liegt in der fruehzeitigen, sicheren Beurteilbarkeit der Vitalitaet des betroffenen Knochens, was fuer die Therapie von Bedeutung ist. (orig.)
