  • 1. Rostock Univ. (German Democratic Republic). Radiologische Klinik

Description

In 37 patients with non-malignant diseases or bone fractures of the facial skull 42 osteoscintigraphies were accomplished with /sup 99m/Te labelled 1-hydroxyethylidene-1,1-diphosphonate or /sup 99m/Te labelled methylenediphosphonate. In patients with polyostotic bone diseases such as fibrous osteodysplasia or eosinophilous granuloma it proved more favorable concerning lower radiation doses to perform scintigraphy prior to radiography.
