Novel Gallium 68 Citrate in Orthopedic Infections
Non-randomizedCrossoverOpen-labelDiagnostic
Summary
In the proposed study, our aim is to evaluate the uptake of 68Gallium-citrate in patients with failed joint prosthesis and compare it with that of conventional 18fluorine-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) scan. We will perform PET/CT scan with 68Gallium citrate and 18F-FDG in subjects with failed hip or knee prosthesis. Both 68Gallium-citrate and 18F-FDG scans, done within 24-48 hours from each other, will be performed within 4 weeks before surgical evaluation/revision of the hardware.
