[Diagnostic possibilities of bone scintigraphy in osteoarticular tuberculosis].
Skeleton scintigraphy with 99mTc-technefor was conducted in 71 patients with bone and joint tuberculosis and in 3 patients with nonspecific spinal diseases. The method was found to be highly sensitive in the diagnosis of a specific process, its localization, dissemination and activity. A correlation was revealed between the quantitative characteristics of isotope accumulation and morphologic signs of tuberculosis activity. Simultaneous visualization of the kidneys made it possible to diagnose their pathology.
