Abstract
The normal distribution of 99mTc sulfur colloid is described in 100 patients with no clinical or radiographic evidence of hip disorders. Of the patients 2/3 had uptake in the femoral neck and some uptake in the femoral head. In the other 1/3, no uptake was detected in either femoral head. A high degree of symmetry was noted. Judging both the symmetry and pattern of uptake in both hips is important in evaluating femoral head vasculature after a fracture.
