Scintigraphy (radionuclide imaging, bone scan) relies on the metabolic activity of bone and its affinity to uptake a detectable marker whose image can be captured by a scan. Images vary on the basis of the rapidity, amount, and location of label uptake. The role of scintigraphy in sports medicine has primarily been as a diagnostic tool for evaluating stress lesions and stress fractures, for which the study has a high sensitivity. The inherent weakness of a bone scan is its lack of specificity, which may lead to problems in diagnostic interpretation. Higher resolution magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography scans provide greater anatomic detail and have largely supplanted the use of scintigraphy in sports medicine.
闪烁扫描术（放射性核素成像、骨扫描）依赖于骨骼的代谢活性及其摄取可被扫描捕捉到图像的可检测标记物的亲和力。图像会根据标记物摄取的速度、数量和位置而有所不同。闪烁扫描术在运动医学中的作用主要是作为评估应力性损伤和应力性骨折的诊断工具，该研究对此具有较高的敏感性。骨扫描的固有弱点是缺乏特异性，这可能导致诊断解读出现问题。高分辨率磁共振成像和计算机断层扫描提供了更详细的解剖结构，在很大程度上已取代了闪烁扫描术在运动医学中的应用。
