Extra osseous uptake of 99mTc-MDP in psoas muscle on bone scintigraphy: Importance of SPECT/CT imaging
Incidental extra-osseous uptake of 99mTc-MDP on bone scintigraphy has been frequently reported in the literature; however, calcification of the psoas muscle is a rare condition, which has been reported on magnetic resonance (MR) and computed tomography (CT) imagings. Here we report a 67-year-old woman with acute paraplegia and low back pain who was referred for a 99mTc-MDP...
متن کاملEditorial Comment: Extra-Skeletal Uptake of Bone Agents
The nuclear medicine literature is rich with reports of both normal and abnormal accumulation of bone imaging agents (99m Tc-HDP, MDP or PYP) in extra-skeletal structures. The cases published in this issue of the Journal of Nuclear Medicine Technology are excellent examples of this phenomenon. Extraskeletal uptake is usually an incidental finding on the bone scan, although the bone scan occasio...
متن کاملCASE REPORTS: Extra-Skeletal Uptake of Bone Agents Bone Agent Localization in Hepatic Metastases
We present the bone scintigrams of two patients, which demonstrate diffuse extraosseous uptake of a bone agent in metastatic masses in the liver, one from a primary lung tumor and one from a primary breast tumor. The bone imaging agent did not localize in the brain metastases in these patients. CTs of the abdomen in both patients showed massive metastases in the liver with multiple areas of tum...
متن کاملAge-related normal variants of sternal uptake on bone scintigraphy.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to describe the variable age-related normal appearance of the sternal area on bone scintigraphy. METHODS We studied 334 patients (158 males and 176 females) aged 15 days to 85 years, mean age 32.5 +/- 19.9 years, who did not have symptoms associated with the sternum and chest wall or a history of malignancy. All patients underwent whole-body bone scan 3 h...
متن کاملExtrathyroidal uptake from thyroid carcinoma on 99mTc-pertechnetate scintigraphy.
Three cases of imaging with 99mTc-pertechnetate (99mTcO4) and unusual positive lymph node uptake in the neck are reported hereby. Two cases were later diagnosed to be well-differentiated thyroid carcinoma, (DTC) with nodal metastasis. The third was a confirmed case of carcinoma thyroid that had presented with mass in the neck soon after surgery, being prepared for ablative dose of radioactive i...
