The role of bone scintigraphy and other imaging modalities in knee pain.
The role of bone scintigraphy (planar and SPET) in the investigation of chronic knee pain is assessed in conjunction with other imaging modalities. A review of the literature has been undertaken and an imaging strategy suggested. It is concluded that bone scintigraphy has an important role to play as an imaging modality when investigating cases of chronic knee pain.
