Bridging Rib Fractures: Scintigraphic and Radiographic Findings

Scintigraphic characteristics of benign rib fractures have been previously described as either clustered or focally aligned so as to involve two or more ribs in the same location. Reported is an unusual presentation with a Tc-99m bone scan of rib fractures in a 68-year-old man who fell off a ladder...

Zusammenfassung:Scintigraphic characteristics of benign rib fractures have been previously described as either clustered or focally aligned so as to involve two or more ribs in the same location. Reported is an unusual presentation with a Tc-99m bone scan of rib fractures in a 68-year-old man who fell off a ladder 4 years earlier.
