Abstract

In the diagnosis of osteomalacia in patients with terminal renal insufficiency after the method of dynamic scintigraphy with diphosphonate major emphasis should be placed on the coefficient of RP blood elimination (C1). The disease should be diagnosed in C1 below 0.1 min.-1. A relative increase in the coefficient of cumulative RP in the bones (C2) as compared to C1 (greater than 2-fold) should be regarded an accessory sign in the diagnosis of osteomalacia.
