Diffuse 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 کاملHepatic and splenic uptake of Tc-99m HDP in multiple myeloma: additional findings on Tc-99m MIBI and Tc-99m sulfur colloid images.
The authors present a case of multiple myeloma with intense hepatic and splenic uptake on Tc-99m HDP bone scan and discuss its clinical implications and possible uptake mechanisms. Tc-99m MIBI and Tc-99m sulfur colloid were used to demonstrate bone marrow involvement and focal lesions of multiple myeloma.
متن کاملPathologic hepatic Tc-99m-MDP uptake in polyostotic fibrous dysplasia.
Fibrous dysplasia of bone is a congenital, sporadic developmental disorder characterized by immature fibrous connective tissue and bone deformities. Hepatic Tc-99m-MDP uptake is a rare, serendipitous finding during bone scanning studies. The present patient was a 25-year-old male who had severe polyostotic fibrous dysplasia. On Tc-99m-MDP (methylene diphosphonate) bone scintigraphy, increased a...
متن کاملComparison of Tc-99m MDP, Tc-99m HSA and Tc-99m HIG uptake in rheumatoid arthritis and its variants.
Tc-99m polyclonal immunoglobulin-G has been shown to be a successful agent in the depiction of active inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The objective of this study was to compare the uptake behaviors of Tc-99m HIG and Tc-99m MDP in RA and variants of rheumatoid arthritis (VRA). Seventeen patients with RA and 8 patients with VRA presenting with active inflammation were included in this ...
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...
