Utility of caudal view in pelvic bone imaging

Clinical Nuclear Medicine
J SimonC F Roques

Abstract

Bone imaging of the lower pelvis often is impaired by the radioactivity of the bladder. The caudal view produces an image that clearly distinguishes the bladder from the bones. Thus, it is helpful in patients with bony lesions of the lower and anterior pelvis. The caudal view examination is completed by a backward tilting of the camera head that clarifies this distinction.
