Abstract

Forty-two consecutive skeletal scintigrams of the dorsal and lumbar spine have been statistically analysed using an Elliott 4120 Computer. Each patient had, in addition, anteroposterior and lateral radiographs of the dorsal and lumbar spine taken. All the patients have been followed up for a minimum of 18 months. In each patient the radiological, scintigraphic, and statistically analysed data have been compared and the accuracy of the results determined by the subsequent progress made by the patient. The results indicate that the computer analysis introduced both false positives and false negatives, and it is suggested that, at the moment, the computerassisted statistical analysis of the skeletal scintigram is not sufficiently reliable for clinical use.
