Bone marking for biopsy using radionuclide bone imaging

The Role of Bone Marrow Aspiration and Bone Marrow Biopsy in Diagnosis of Bone Marrow Metastases

Background: Bone marrow is the site of many malignant disorders and it is one of the common places for solid tumors to metastasize. Examination of the bone marrow aspirate and biopsy is a routine procedure performed for assessment of various conditions such as cytopenias, hematologic neoplasms, nonmalignant disorders and metastatic neoplasms.

Radionuclide bone scanning.

Radionuclide bone scanning is the second most frequently performed radionuclide study in childhood. There are a wide variety of indications, many advantages, and few disadvantages. Functional as well as anatomical information is obtained.' Bone scanning is particularly valuable in the diagnosis of inflammatory conditions, trauma, and in the investigation of occult bone pain and vascular insult'...

Bone-Targeted Imaging and Radionuclide Therapy in Prostate Cancer.

Although selective metabolic and receptor-based molecular agents will surely be included in the future of prostate cancer diagnosis and therapy, currently available inorganic compounds-such as 18F-NaF for the diagnosis of bony disease and 223RaCl2 for the therapy of bone metastases-were recently shown to be superior to standard 99mTc-phosphonates for diagnosis and 153Sm-ethylenediaminetetrameth...
