title: Plantar fascitis--early blood pool images in diagnosis of inflammatory process.
abstract: Bone scintigraphy is of diagnostic value in stress fractures where radiography may not be helpful. Obtaining early blood pool images during scintigraphy for suspected stress fractures may help to identify soft tissue inflammation (plantar fascitis) when delayed images are normal.
