  Aim: This prospective analysis of the findings of bone scans done for skeletal fracture assessment was undertaken to compare the findings of the Triple phase Bone scan and the Scintimetric Characterization by Dr.V.Siva’s retention ratio in the assessment and evaluation of the skeletal fracture. Materials and Method: In this total study population of 39, had 19 males and 20 females. The 3 phases were acquired immediately after the intra-venous injection of 25 mCi of Tc99m MDP in a dynamic fashion centering over the fracture site. The dual head gamma camera e-Cam was used. The static Skeletal phase image and the 4 h whole body bone scan images were acquired 4 h after injection. The images were processed, and the results were tabulated. The 24 h static Skeletal phase image was acquired the next day. The 4/24 h Dr.V.Siva’s retention rati.. Read More»
