## Introduction Human T-cell leukemia virus (HTLV) was isolated from a cutaneous T-cell lymphoma patient by Gallo and his colleagues (Poiesz et al., 1980) and adult T-cell leukemia virus (ATLV) was isolated from patients with adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) in Japan (Yoshida et al., 1982). Originally,
Gallium scintigraphy was evaluated in 25 patients with adult T-cell leukemia lymphoma (ATLL). Anterior and posterior images were obtained at 72 h after administration of 3 mCi 67Ga-citrate using a gamma camera (Maxi-Camera 400 T, General Electric Co.) with a medium energy standard parallel hole coll
We report a case of adult T-cell leukemia with increased uptake in both lungs which was detected by a bone scan using 99mTc-MDP. This finding is thought to have been caused by the metastatic calcification which is associated with ectopic parathormone production.
