Correlation study on infrared thermography and nerve root signs in lumbar intervertebral disk herniation patient: a short report

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether infrared skin thermography is an objective measurement reflecting the seriousness of nerve root irritation in lumbar disk herniation patients. DESIGN: Quantified nerve root signs by physical examination were collected from the patients along with the infrared skin temperature measurement on the lumbosacral region and posterior part of thighs. A correlation study was applied to observe the relation between the nerve root signs and the skin temperature before a successful conservative treatment (mainly spine manipulation), and between the alteration of nerve root signs and that of skin temperature after the treatment. SETTING: Hospitalized care. PATIENTS: Twenty-seven hospitalized samples with computed tomography or magnetic resonance approval were consecutively selected during the latter half of 1990. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Changes in nerve root signs. RESULTS: The temperature difference between a troubled thigh and healthy one is significantly correlated to the score of the nerve root signs before the treatment; and the reduction of temperature difference between two thighs is also significantly correlated with decreasing score of nerve root signs after the treatment. The correlation between the temperature difference on the left and right sides of the lumbosacral region and the nerve root signs before the treatment is insignificant; and the variation of the temperature difference of the same region after the treatment is not correlated with the decreasing score of the nerve root signs. CONCLUSION: Infrared skin thermography of lower extremities might be an objective sign in signaling the soothing process of the nerve root irritation in lumbar disk herniation patients, which may help a doctor in checking the responses of the patient to treatment.

99Tcm-MDP scintigraphy in high-voltage electrical burn patients

In high-voltage electrical burn injuries (> 1000 V), it is difficult to identify the site and extent of non-viable deep tissue damage for debridement to avoid further tissue injury from wound infection and the risk of sepsis. This prospective study was designed to evaluate the usefulness of 99Tcm-methylene di-phosphonate (99Tcm-MDP) scintigraphy in detecting the extent of tissue injury and determining the level of amputation required for electrical burn patients. Over a 5 year period, 33 high-voltage electrical burn patients were studied. Blood flow and blood pool studies revealed absent perfusion in 37 limbs, all of which eventually were amputated. In addition to a routine three-phase bone scan, images were obtained at 30-60 min (early images) to evaluate whether soft tissue injury could be detected better at that time. For comparison of the detection rate from the early images and bone (delayed) images, 164 corresponding spot views of both images were reviewed. Eighty-three and 125 tissue necrotic lesions were demonstrated by the early images and bone images respectively. All of the 83 lesions found by the early images were more clearly identified by the bone images. All but one of the 125 lesions underwent surgical debridement or amputation. We concluded that the blood flow and blood pool images correlated well with the level of amputation required. The site and extent of tissue necrotic lesions can be clearly identified on 99Tcm-MDP bone scans. Because the early images were less sensitive in detecting tissue necrosis, we suggest that early imaging is not necessary.
