  • Title: Technetium-99m hydroxymethylene diphosphonate scanning of acute injuries to the lateral ligaments of the ankle.
    Author: Maurice H, Watt I.
    Journal: Br J Radiol; 1989 Jan; 62(733):31-4. PubMed ID: 2914189.
    Abstract:
    Technetium-99m hydroxymethylene diphosphonate scans were performed on 29 consecutive patients with acute ankle ligament injuries. Scanning reliably differentiated a severe from a minor injury. Severe injuries gave a diffuse uptake on the scan and the minor injuries a more localized increase in uptake.
