Abstract

We present serial bone scintigraphy examinations in a 38-year-old woman who presented with posterior left rib pain in the setting of adrenal insufficiency secondary to pituitary damage as a result of radiation treatment for orbital sarcoma.

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a case report, done in people. Its evidence level is 5 of 5 (Very low · case / narrative / animal / in vitro / in silico). Case reports, narrative reviews, and animal, cell or computer-model studies give the weakest evidence for human health.

How the five levels of evidence work. The level is assigned automatically from the abstract and can be wrong, so check the paper.
