Typical Leucocyte Scintigraphy (LS) scans before and after antibiotic therapy in a patient with no recurrence.

A. Planar 4 and 24 hours anterior images before treatment; B. SPECT, CT and SPECT/CT axial 24 hours images before treatment; C. planar 4 and 24 hours anterior images after treatment; D. SPECT, CT and SPECT/CT axial 24 hours images after treatment.

In September 2014, planar and SPECT/CT images showed high uptake of radiotracer on the tympanic part of the temporal bone and mandibular condyle. After two months of systemic antibiotherapy against pseudomonas aeruginosa, LS scan was normalized.
