The EANM practice guidelines for bone scintigraphy
PurposeThe radionuclide bone scan is the cornerstone of skeletal nuclear medicine imaging. Bone scintigraphy is a highly sensitive diagnostic nuclear medicine imaging technique that uses a radiotracer to evaluate the distribution of active bone formation

Hepatobiliary Scintigraphy in 2014 [PDF]
Cholescintigraphy with (99m)Tc-hepatobiliary radiopharmaceuticals has been an important, clinically useful diagnostic imaging study for almost 4 decades. It continues to be in much clinical demand; however, the indications, methodology, and interpretative criteria have evolved over the years.

Bone scintigraphy in hypervitaminosis A
The diagnosis of vitamin A intoxification may be difficult at the time of initial presentation. The radionuclide bone scan in cases of vitamin A toxicity may serve as a more sensitive indicator of the presence of this disease than radiographs in the initial evaluation and follow-up of patients with skeletal involvement.
