Radiologic Diagnosis X-rays: soft tissue swelling periosteal elevation focal osteopenia 2 week lag
Radiologic Diagnosis Tc scan:accumulation in areas of inc blood flow and bone formation positive in 48 hrs Three-phase scan false-neg due to poor blood flow
Radiologic Diagnosis gallium scan:inc uptake in areas of PMN’s, macrophages do not show bone well imaging at 24h and 72h high sens/high radiation MRI scan:bone vs soft tissue T2-inc signal in bone not for screening
