Characterization of Solitary Lesions in the Extremities on Whole-Body Bone Scan in Patients With Known Cancer: Contribution of Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography/Computed Tomography

Characterization of Solitary Lesions in the Extremities on Whole-Body Bone Scan in Patients With Known Cancer: Contribution of Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography/Computed Tomography

Background: Solitary lesions in the extremities showing 99mTc-methylene diphosphate (MDP) uptake are often encountered on whole-body bone scan (WBS), and proper interpretation of this diagnostic method is important for patients with known cancer. The purpose of this study was to summarize the charac...
