“…95,96 Electrical Injury and Frostbite Bone scintigraphy has been used in the evaluation of nonviable bone following electrical injury. [97][98][99] In these cases, devascularized bone appears cold on scintigraphy. It has been shown that results of bone scintigraphy correlate well with the required level of amputation.…”

The results of this study suggest that TPBS is an extremely useful tool in the evaluation of physiological dysfunction and the likely amputation level in patients with arterial obstructive leg and foot disease.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
