pubmed:abstractText
In most developed countries, survivors of physical torture inflicted for political, religious, or ethnic reasons face ever more stringent review when seeking asylum. In Austria, asylum seekers are required by immigration authorities to undergo medical examination as part of the review. Bone scintigraphy can detect bone lesions that are not detectable clinically or radiologically. We assessed the value of bone scintigraphy as corroboration of alleged injuries.
