[Gamma scan findings in various bone processes in the jaw region].
Bone scintigraphy is a new means to early diagnosis of primary and secondary bone tumors, before significant radiological changes occur. The method is used with the osteotrope radioisotope 99mTc. Scintigraphy is most important in the determination of extent and localization of malignancies, relative to the indication for surgery, the tactics of surgery and for the diagnosis of recidives. In osteomyelitis, it facilitates early discovery and judgement of a florid or chronic process.
