The localization of 99mTc(Sn)-MDP in bone tissue was compared with 99mTc-MDP by means of microautoradiography of undecalcified bone sections. Sections of good histological quality were obtained by a rapid embedding method in methylmethacrylate. No differences were found in the localization of these

A 2 1/2-year-old boy with a posterior mediastinal ganglioneuroblastoma was evaluated by bone scintigraphy using 99mTc-DMP and showed a marked increased uptake in the tumor mass. Although a routine chest X-ray and body CT scan failed to demonstrate calcification, X-ray examination of the removed tumo
This communication reports a presumed increased localization of 99mTc-diphosphonate in a surgical scar 5 months post-op at the site of a medium sternotomy incision. The possible mechanisms for this observation are commented on and a brief review of the observed sites of soft-tissue uptake of 99mTc-l
