Abstract
Serial bone scannings with 99-M-Tc-MDP have been performed in 15 patients with an extra-articular dorsal-angulated fracture of the distal radius (Colles' fracture). A method for the quantification of healing activity is described. The activity-ratios show a typical pattern of progress during the healing period. There is a correlation between fractures with high activity ratios late in the healing period and fractures that redisplace during the healing period.Entities:
