Incremental Value of Three-Phase Bone Scintigraphy and Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography-Computed Tomography in a Case of Postpartum PUO in the Wake of The Antibiotic-Resistance Era.

Postpartum methicillin-resistant (MRSA) infection occurs in patients with complicated vaginal delivery or cesarean section. The infection can manifest as mastitis, endometritis, and if untreated may lead to toxic shock syndrome. We report a case of postpartum MRSA osteomyelitis diagnosed by 99mtechnetium-methylene diphosphonate skeletal scintigraphy and single-photon emission computed tomography-computed tomography (CT) that was further confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging and CT-guided biopsy.

18-Fluorine-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography-Computed Tomography in the Evaluation of the Great Masquerader Melioidosis: A Case Series.

Melioidosis is an emerging infectious disease in India. The disease has a crippling effect on the patient owing to its widespread dissemination and complications post bacteremia. The role of 18-fluorine-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) is becoming increasingly important in terms of documenting the extent of disease and response to treatment.
