Findings
was changed:
Three Phase Bone Scan + SPECT/CT
Vascular phase: In the posterior image (right side) there is a discrete increase in the flow of vertebral body of L4.
Thetissue image does not show hyperemia data.
In On SPECT / CT/CT, there is a decreased mineral metabolism in the vertebral body of L4, which presents inon CT a trabecular thickening with polka-dot sign.
