Labeled white blood cell/bone marrow single-photon emission computed tomography with computed tomography fails in diagnosing chronic periprosthetic shoulder joint infection.
Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery（2019）
Abstract
A positive WBC/BM was found only in patients with obvious PJI. Hence, the scan added nothing to the preoperative diagnosis. The WBC/BM single-photon emission computed tomography-computed tomography scan cannot be recommended as a screening procedure when evaluating failed shoulder arthroplasties for possible infection.
