Hi went for my bone scan today,
had the radiation injection.
could'nt see anything will i was lying down, but when they redid my hands i was looking at the screen. the screen was dark, but you could make out the bones (pale white) but my knuckles & joints were bright white. Is this how it should look like if you have RA?

Hi Doris,

That is a good question. I have been trying to find out for you, but I haven't had any luck.

I hope everything comes out good for you.

Love,
Lyn

Hi Lyn,
Thank you for looking, i have been to & only found pics that show the bones black, so maybe when there developed they do the reverse thing, i don't know. But i will keep looking to.
Thanks,
Sandra....

Hi Doris,

According to the following site the bright areas are considered "hot spots" and could possibly be arthritis. I am sure the doctor will go over all of this in detail when you go in for your results.

I am not sure but I work at a hotel and we have a couple regular doctors that come in and stay with us so I will see if I can get an answer when the next one comes in for you ok. One of them is in raydiology (ok had it right once and now my mind and hands are not really working together any more. I hope you get good news. Feel better soon.
