The authors retrospectively reviewed the Tc-99m medronate scan findings in six patients
who had no evidence of metastatic disease following en bloc resection of a primary …

PURPOSE: To define and compare the complications of bone tumors after resection,
extracorporeal irradiation and re-implantation, with or without radiotherapy. MATERIALS …

We quantitatively analyzed images of 99mTc-HMDP bone scintigraphy in 34 bone sarcomas
before and after preoperative chemotherapy. The isotopic uptake was calculated as tumor-to …

The early detection of metastatic spread in sixteen patients with osteosarcoma has been
studied over a twelve month period, comparing the techniques of bone scanning and …

Introduction Local bone tumor excision followed by pasteurization and reimplantation is a
unique technique of reconstruction for sarcoma patients. The long-term scintigraphic …

reconstruction after resection of lower extremity osteosarcoma. Materials and Methods: The …

Although there is a limited role initially for staging the disease of primary bone and soft
tissue tumors and for differentiation of benign from malignant lesions, nuclear medicine …

Skeletal scintigraphy using Technetium-99m (99m Tc) complexes was carried out in a series
of 332 cancer patients. The results of scintigraphy were compared with the results of …
