title: [Bone involvement in lymphogranulomatosis (clinical, x-ray and thermographic studies)].
abstract: Clinico-roentgenologic and thermographic signs of bone involvement were studied in 53 cases of Hodgkin's disease. Although radionuclide and X-ray procedures were found to be diagnostically superior over thermography, the latter is complication-free, time-saving and can be used repeatedly. It, therefore, may be recommended as the first diagnostic procedure when bone involvement is suspected. As a result of the treatment, regression was observed in 50% and stabilisation--in 30.6% of pathologic foci. Radiation-induced hyperthermia accounts for low reliability of thermography in evaluating response.
