Infection-specific tracers. Bone scintigraphy The first, and undoubtedly the most extensively investigated, radionuclide procedure used for imaging joint arthroplasties was bone scintigraphy. Technetium-99m (99mTc) labeled diphosphonates, usually methylene diphosphonate (MDP), are used for this study. Radiopharmaceutical incorporation into the bone depends on perfusion and rate of new bone formation. Imaging usually is performed two to fours after injection. The procedure also can be performed as a three phase bone scan: the flow or perfusion phase, acquired immediately after radiopharmaceutical injection, followed immediately by the soft tissue or blood pool phase. The third, or bone, phase is performed between two and four hours later. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4109096/ |
