Influence of Metal Implants on Quantitative Evaluation of Bone Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography/Computed Tomography
When visualizing biological activity at nonunion sites by the radioisotopes, gamma rays are more attenuated if metal implants are placed in the bone. However, the effects of various implant types and their placement on gamma ray attenuation in quantitative evaluation remain unknown. To elucidate the...
