Systemic bone disease screening is a technique of injecting osteopathic radiopharmaceuticals into a vein and then performing whole-body bone imaging with a SPECT instrument. It can clearly show the morphology of the whole body's bones, and can reflect the blood supply and metabolism of the bones. It has a high sensitivity in the detection of bone diseases, and can show the existence of lesions before abnormalities in X-ray examination. There is important value in the diagnosis and evaluation of the effects of bone diseases. A whole-body skeletal imaging can detect more than 50 skeletal diseases.
