DISCUSSION Elevated stomach uptake of [99mTc] MDPcan be due to free pertechnetate, to
dystrophic, and to metastatic calcification. Localized uptake in the stomach region, which …

DISCUSSION Extra-skeletal uptake of bone-seeking radiopharmaceu ticals is well known.
Uptake of@ has been reported in both malignant and benign pleural effusions and ascites …

A 52-year-old man with metastatic poorly differentiated bronchogenic carcinoma and serum
calcium levels as high as 14.6 had intense Tc-99m MDP uptake found throughout the …

DISCUSSION The patients' clinical course and laboratory results indicate a period of severe,
reversible hepatic dysfunc tion. This is an expected consequence of high-dose methotrexate …

Multiple organ concentration of Tc-99m MDP in a 60-year-old man who had primary
hyperparathyroidism and persistent, severe hypercalcemia is reported. This patient was …

An unusual accumulation of 99m Tc diphosphonate appeared within the stomach, thyroid
and lungs of a patient along with minimal uptake in the bone. Many factors involving the …

Extraosseous accumulation of bone-seeking radiopharmaceuticals has been reported in
various benign and neoplastic conditions. This report concerns extraosseous uptake in …

Metastatic calcifications are associated with chronic renal failure, hyperparathyroidism,
metastatic neoplasms, hypervitaminosis D, and hypercalcemia of other origins. Bone …

Discussion Abnormal soft tissue calcification may be metastatic or dystrophic. The former
represents the deposition of mineral in normal tissue, as in parathyroid disease …
