The current protocols include the bone scintigraphy and choline PET/CT to localize recurrence in patients having elevated serum PSA after treatment for prostate cancer. Both methods show good agreement in the diagnosis of bone metastases, however conflicting results can be found. We present three cases in which a PET/CT was performed with (18)F-Fluoride due to disagreement between the bone scin...

Articular involvement was reported to be present in approximately 5-76% of Behçet patients. Therefore, we need a useful non-invasive method to detect articular involvement early in Behçet patients with nonspecific complaints. We aimed to evaluate the usefulness of 99mTc-methylene diphosphonate (Tc-99m-MDP) bone scintigraphy in the detection of the articular involvement of Behçet's disease (BD)....

Bone is the one of the most common distant metastatic sites in breast cancer. Routine initial breast cancer staging evaluation typically includes computed tomography (CT) and skeletal scintigraphy while 18F fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) is reserved for clinically high-risk cases. Since FDG PET-CT is not routinely performed during staging or s...

Serial bone scintigraphy in Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease (LCP) has a good early prognostic value. So far, no intra- and inter-observer reliability study on this classification has been published. Serial technetium scintigraphy of the hips was performed in 40 children with LCP disease, and the hips were classified based on their scintigraphic patterns according to Conway. Forty hips were classifie...
