Photon-deficient areas in 99mTc/111 in white blood cell (WBC) images for diagnosing vertebral osteomyelitis have been published often. This study retrospectively evaluated whether the use of 99mTc-labeled monoclonal antigranulocyte antibodies (BW 250/183) is superior to WBC and whether it offers higher specificity.
