title: Technetium-99m radionuclide bone imaging for evaluating mandibular osseous allografts.
abstract: Sequential interpretation of osseous repair, more sensitive than with conventional radiography, is possible with a noninvasive, nondestructive radio-nuclide method. The method was used in the evaluation of the progress of osteogenic activity in mandibular bone grafts in 24 beagle dogs.
