    Abstract:
    The present paper compares scintigraphy using leucocytes labelled with 111 indium oxine sulphate with conventional 99Tc pyrophosphate scintigraphy for the investigation of inflammatory processes in the region of the jaw bones. It also tries to establish whether progress can be made in the field of differential diagnosis using a combination of these two methods of investigation. It is shown that conventional scintigraphy using 99Tc pyrophosphate represents an approved method of investigation, whereas scintigraphy using autologous leucocytes does not as yet fulfil the expectations that have been placed in it.
