Extramedullary Soft Tissue Involvement and Discrepant Osseous Uptake on Tc-99m MDP and Ga-67 Citrate Scintigraphy in a Patient With Multiple Myeloma
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a plasma cell neoplasm with skeletal destruction which could also spread to extramedullary regions. Common diagnostic imaging modalities include skeletal radiography, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Recently, PET/CT is proposed as an ideal tomographic tool for diagnosis and follow-up, but impending factors includes high cost, limited availabi...
متن کاملMarked gastric uptake of Tc-99m methylene diphosphonate (MDP) in a patient with myeloma and hypercalcemia
A 59-year-old man presented with a 7-month history of increasing left shoulder pain. The initial plain films showed near absence of the left scapula and scattered lucent changes in the left humerus. A CT scan confirmed the presence of widespread lytic bony lesions, with a large soft-tissue mass centered around the left scapula. An isotope bone scan demonstrated marked uptake of MDP in the stoma...
متن کامل(99m)Tc-MDP uptake in soft-tissue osteosarcoma in a dog.
A 6-year-old, female Alaskan malamute domestic dog was presented for a bone scintigraphy with a soft tissue tumour of 4 months duration. The tumour at the time of scintigraphic examination was 10 cm in diameter and was localized in the lateral line on the right chest along the 11th rib. Pathologic diagnosis based upon fine needle biopsy was osteogenic sarcoma. The aim of the scan was to assess ...
متن کاملDiffuse splenic Tc-99m MDP uptake in hypersplenic patient.
A 52-year-old woman with nonspecific left leg pain was examined by Tc-99m methylene diphosphonate (MDP) bone scintigraphy. The patient had been a marble quarry worker for 10 years and had developed chronic congestive heart failure secondary to pneumoconiosis. Her hemoglobin analysis and hematologic findings were interpreted as being consistent with sickle cell beta+ thalassemia and also hypersp...
متن کاملThe diagnostic value of (99m)Tc-IgG scintigraphy in the diabetic foot and comparison with (99m)Tc-MDP scintigraphy.
UNLABELLED Diabetic foot infection is the most common etiology of nontraumatic amputation of the lower extremities, and early diagnosis is of great importance in its management. The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate the strength of (99m)Tc-IgG scintigraphy in diagnosis of osteomyelitis of the diabetic foot and to compare (99m)Tc-IgG scintigraphy with (99m)Tc-methylene diphosphonate ...
