Bone scintigraphy with pinhole collimator and the classification derived from its utilization in the study of the Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease is introduced in our environment. 227 patients with presuntive diagnosis of this disease underwent scintigraphy at the Nuclear Medicine Department of the “Frank País” International Scientific Orthopedic Complex from September, 1996, to December, 1997 (including both). The diagnosis was confirmed in 28 cases (9 with normal X-rays) and other 31 affections were diagnosed. The relationship between radiography and scintigraphy was established, allowing to have a prognosis of the affection.
