چکیده
A 70-year-old man with complicated cruris fracture, treated with an arthrodesis and skin transplantation, complained about persistent pain of the right ankle and skin rashes. Bone and leukocyte scintigraphy were performed because osteomyelitis was suspected. Bone scintigraphy showed abnormal uptake in the ankle. Leukocyte scintigraphy showed only multiple hot spots in the soft tissue. A cutaneous biopsy specimen revealed Henoch-Schonlein vasculitis.

99mTc-HMPAO labeled platelet (LP) imaging may integrate thrombosis imaging into routine clinical procedures. In the current study, we assessed the feasibility of the use of 99mTc-HMPAO LP for imaging of small clots in an animal model.
