[Findings of NMR tomography in the diagnosis of osteomyelitis and arthritis].
The findings on MR tomography in fourteen patients with osteomyelitis and eight patients with arthritis are described. A retrospective analysis showed that MR was superior in demonstrating changes in the bone marrow and spread of infection round the bone. These changes are shown more accurately and with better contrast after the use of gadolinium DTPA. T1 and T2 sequences appear to be necessary.
