The authors have presented their own method of defining "joint to bone" and "joint to joint" radioactivity indicators with the application of 99mTc-pyrophosphate. Investigations of the degree of 99mTc-pyrophosphate accumulation in the 4 chosen points have shown that the lowest coefficient of changeability points out at half of crus length. The authors have employed radioactivity measurement of this place as a constant reference point while defining all the indicators "joint to bone". On the basis of the investigations carried out in 45 patients with varied degrees of rheumatoid arthritis activity and in the control group of twenty individuals it was established that the applied method makes possible the quantitative evaluation of rheumatoid arthritis activity in a simple way and in a short time.
作者介绍了他们自己的方法，即应用99mTc-焦磷酸盐来定义“关节至骨骼”和“关节至关节”放射性指标。对4个选定部位99mTc-焦磷酸盐积聚程度的研究表明，变化系数最低的点位于小腿长度的一半处。作者在定义所有“关节至骨骼”指标时，将该部位的放射性测量作为一个固定的参考点。基于对45例不同类风湿关节炎活动程度患者和20名个体的对照组所进行的研究，确定所应用的方法能够以简单且快速的方式对类风湿关节炎活动进行定量评估。
