Use of Technetium-99m Methylene Diphosphonate and Gallium-67 Citrate Scans after Intraarticular Injection of Staphylococcus aureus into Knee Joints of Rabbits with Chronic Antigen-Induced Arthritis

Abstract: Numerous clinical studies have questioned the ability of radionuclide scans to differentiate septic from aseptic joint inflammation. A clinical study may not be able to document an underlying disease process or duration of infection and, thus, may make conclusions about the accuracy of scan interpretations open to debate. In this study, the Dumonde-Glynn model of antigen-induced arthritis in rabbits was used as the experimental model to study technetium and gallium scans in Staphylococcus aureus infection of a… Show more
