The use of labelled leukocytes in the diagnosis of traumatic osteomyelitis
1991
: A total of 20 patients with posttraumatic osteomyelitis were investigated with 99mTc- and 111In-labeled leukocytes. Their elevated accumulation in inflammatory zones were detected on scintigrams of 12 patients. Osteomyelitis in 11 of them was confirmed on the basis of routine clinico-laboratory investigations. This method is a highly specific test in the diagnosis of posttraumatic osteomyelitis and in the assessment of the efficacy of its therapy.
