Identification of vanishing tophi by three-dimensional dual-energy computed tomography in a patient with chronic tophaceous gout.


ABSTRACT: Large gout tophi are difficult to treat and sometimes needs operation for its elimination. Dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) is now being used for detection of tophi in patients with gouty arthritis. After intensive treatment, we could observe vanishing tophi with DECT.
