Abstract
The scintigraphic manifestations of cellulitis consist of a diffuse increase in activity in the affected soft tissues without a focal increase in activity in the bone. The radionuclide images in two children with Group A streptococcal cellulitis were atypical, as no increased activity was noted in the soft tissues. The false-negative radionuclide images in these children is attributed to the marked amount of edema present at the sites of infection.
