Bone SPET of symptomatic lumbar spondylolysis
Nuclear Medicine Communications, 1996The aim of this study was to clarify the clinical role of bone single photon emission tomography (SPET) of the lumbar spine in young persons with persistent lumbar pain which might be due to spondylolysis. Thirty-one bone SPET studies were performed on 25 patients (19 males, 6 females) aged 7-26 years (average 15.6 years) who had suffered lumbar pain ...

SPECT Evaluation of Lumbar Spondylolysis and Spondylolisthesis
Spine, 1994Fifty patients with back pain and radiologically diagnosed spondylolysis were evaluated by a single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT bone scanning). These patients were separated into three groups according to the degree of spondylolisthesis accompanying the spondylolysis. The data obtained from the study indicate that in acute spondylolysis,

Familial occurrence of lumbar spondylolysis and spondylolisthesis
Clinical Genetics, 1978In a Finnish kindred consisting of 192 descendants from two marriages of a male ancestor born in 1868, the lumbar spines of 105 of the 170 living members were X‐rayed. Spondylolysis was found in 22 individuals. In addition, six of them had spondylolisthesis, four had spina bifida occulta, and two had a transitional lumbar/sacral vertebra. Seven members
