Article Synopsis
- Syphilis is a sexually or congenitally transmitted infection that can progress through primary, secondary, and tertiary stages, with diverse symptoms including painless lesions and potential organ damage.
- Diagnostic techniques in nuclear medicine, such as bone scans and liver scintigraphy, help identify skeletal and hepatic complications, while imaging brain blood flow is used to assess neurosyphilis effects.
- The incidence of neurosyphilis is low but may rise due to factors like migration, making it important to consider scintigraphic methods for diagnosing this condition in affected patients.
