ABSTRACT

Rhabdomyolysis is a potentially life-threatening disease which may result from a variety of causes. We describe the features of magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) and bone scintigraphy, and their importance for diagnosis and treatment of a patient with rhabdomyolysis.

Key words: Rhabdomyolysis | MRI | Bone scintigraphy
