Abstract:
Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) type I is a neuropathic pain syndrome with high disability rate. Its clinical symptoms are complex and diverse, which seriously reduce the quality of life of CRPS patients. At present, the diagnosis of CRPS mainly depends on the disease history, symptoms and signs, the diagnostic standard of CRPS in the form of objective tests has not been established. In recent years, as a complementary imaging technology, three-phase bone scintigraphy (TPBS) has been applied in the diagnosis of CRPS, especially of CRPS . The research progresses of TPBS in diagnosis of CRPS were reviewed in this article.
