Diffuse Hepatic and Spleen Uptake of Tc-99m MDP on Bone Scintigraphy Resembling Liver-Spleen Scintigraphy in a Patient of Plasma Cell Tumor [PDF]
The present case demonstrates a diffuse intense hepatic and, to a lesser degree, spleen, Tc-99m MDP uptake on a routine bone scintigraphy resembling liver-spleen imaging.

Incidental Cardiac Uptake on 99mTc-HMDP Bone Scintigraphy in Oncology Patients: Two Cases of Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy with Literature Review [PDF]
Background: Bone scintigraphy using technetium-99m hydroxymethylene diphosphonate (99mTc-HMDP) is extensively employed to detect bone metastases. However, incidental myocardial uptake may indicate wild-type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt-CM)

Diagnostic value of bone scintigraphy versus cardiovascular magnetic resonance in cardiac amyloidosis [PDF]
: Background: Accurate diagnosis of transthyretin amyloidosis cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) and its differentiation from light-chain (AL) cardiac amyloidosis (CA) cases (AL-CM) are of paramount importance.

Predicting iliac bone marrow harvest success in osteonecrosis of femoral head using preoperative bone scintigraphy uptake: a cross sectional study [PDF]
Background Bone marrow transplantation has been employed as a regenerative treatment for osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). However, in clinical practice, obtaining a sufficient volume of bone marrow aspirate under general anesthesia can sometimes

Rational and reliable diagnosis of periprosthetic hip and knee joint infection using two nuclear-medicine methods: 99mTc-ciprofloxacin and 99mTc-MDP scintigraphy [PDF]
Background/Aim. There is a constant and dramatic in-crease in hip and knee prosthetic implantations worldwide. However, a decrease in the percentage of failed (infected) prosthetic implantations is not significant (0.5% up to 2%).
