Malignancy incidence and primary tumor investigation in the patients with vertebral compression fractures by means of combined Tc-99m methylene diphosphonate bone scintigraphy and fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography

Malignancy incidence and primary tumor investigation in the patients with vertebral compression fractures by means of combined Tc-99m methylene diphosphonate bone scintigraphy and fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography

Purpose: Vertebral compression fractures frequently present with back pain and are determined by magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. However, fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG PET/CT) is performed to determine the pathological fractures and primary tumors in a sin...
