متن کاملDiagnostic value of sacroiliac joint scintigraphy with 99m technetium pyrophosphate in sacroiliitis.
Using a quantitative method, scintigraphy of SI joints was performed by means of 99m technetium pyrophosphate in 21 patients with definite ankylosing spondylitis, in 17 control patients, and in 26 patients 'at risk', i.e. patients with complaints of back pain of the inflammatory type where on clinical grounds there was a possibility of sacroiliitis developing but with normal x-ray findings of t...
