What Are the Different Types of Skeletal Disease?

No dense focus (hot zone), no radioactive defect (cold zone), no bone-shaped doughnuts, no super-images and flickering of bones, and no imaging outside the bones.

Systemic bone disease screening is a technique of injecting osteopathic radiopharmaceuticals into a vein and then performing whole-body bone imaging with a SPECT instrument. It can clearly show the morphology of the whole body's bones, and can reflect the blood supply and metabolism of the bones. It has a high sensitivity in the detection of bone diseases. It can show the existence of lesions before abnormalities in X-ray examination. There is important value in the diagnosis and evaluation of the effects of a bone disease. A whole-body skeletal imaging can detect more than 50 skeletal diseases.

Name: Screening for general skeletal diseases

category: X-ray

Normal values for skeletal diseases

No dense focus (hot zone), no radioactive defect (cold zone), no bone-shaped doughnuts, no super-images and flickering of bones, and no imaging outside the bones.

Clinical significance of systemic bone disease screening

Abnormal results: (1) Concentrated bones (hot areas) (single, multiple) in bones are common in trauma as injuries, fractures, and surgical injuries. Inflammation may be osteomyelitis, abscess, or osteitis. Tumors may include bone metastases, lung cancer, prostate cancer, breast cancer, kidney cancer, and nail cancer. Benign bone tumors include osteochondroma, endogenous osteoma, and bone cysts. Malignant bone tumors are considered to be osteosarcoma, Euven's osteoma, and chondrosarcoma. It may also be a bone metabolic disease such as (Paget's disease) deformity osteitis, parathyroidism, and osteoporosis. The hot zone on the periosteum is new bone formation, which can be judged without pulmonary osteoarthropathy (HPO). On the joints, it can provide a basis for osteoarthritis, rheumatism and rheumatoid arthritis, and degenerative joint disease. It can also be granulomas, fibrous bone dysplasia. (2) Radiation defects (cold areas) are common in the sternum, and the thoracic spine and pelvic bone may be malignant bone metastases (80-90%). Also be considered may be benign lesions such as necrosis, cysts, frostbite, radiotherapy, surgical trauma, resection. (3) Bone-shaped doughnuts can be used for trauma such as non-union fractures, necrosis, and radiation therapy. It may also be inflammation and Paget's disease. (4) Superscan of bones is a condition of multiple multiple bone metastases (metastasis such as prostate cancer and breast cancer) and primary hyperparathyroidism. (5) Flare can be seen as a sign of improvement in chemotherapy and other treatments. (6) The appearance of extra-bone imaging on the urinary system may be a concentration of whole kidneys: urinary tract obstruction, hydronephrosis, acute tubular necrosis, and interstitial nephritis. Focal renal hyperplasia is a malignant tumor in or around the kidney, kidney metastasis from lung cancer, and nephroblastoma. Sparse defects are abscesses, cysts, benign tumors, and partial metastases. Morphological abnormalities may be unilateral enlargement and contraction (impaired function, narrowed blood vessels). Imaging on soft tissue can diagnose non-tumor: lung cancer (oat cell carcinoma), breast cancer, uterine cancer, colon cancer, lymphoma, neurofibroma, etc. On the neck, thyroid cartilage calcification and soft tissue metastases were examined. Stomach dislocation imaging is a surgical ureterostomy and colon cancer. People to check: people with abnormal bones, sub-healthy people, and people at high risk of cancer.

Precautions for troubleshooting of bone diseases

Unsuitable people: No contraindications before the test: No special contraindications required during the test: Intravenous reflex medication and imaging may be time consuming and need to be patient.

Examination and examination of whole body bone disease

Bone radioactive drugs are injected into the body through a vein, and whole body bone imaging is performed by a SPECT instrument.
