Accuracy of diagnostic imaging modalities for peripheral post-traumatic osteomyelitis

Publikováno v: European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging. 44(8):1393-1407

Post-traumatic osteomyelitis (PTO) is difficult to diagnose and there is no consensus on the best imaging strategy. The aim of this study is to present a systematic review of the recent literature on diagnostic imaging of PTO.A literature search of t
