Default Is 5 months after my trauma too early for bone scan to make a rsd diagnosis?
I had trauma on my leg and subsequent pain and now doc wants to rule rsd out. How too little time passed for the bone scan to be of any use in making a diagnosis? In other words, have I had the rsd long enough for it to have affected the bones and thus no shown in a scan and thus not be an effective tool in making an rsd diagnosis?
