From: Accurate characterization of 99mTc-MDP uptake in extraosseous neoplasm mimicking bone metastasis on whole-body bone scan: contribution of SPECT/CT

Fig. 6

A 49-year-old man with lung cancer (adenocarcinoma) after surgery and chemotherapy for 1 year, who was referred for suspected metastasis. The whole-body scan (a, anterior; b, posterior) revealed a single focus of high 99mTc-MDP activity in the right occipital bone (black arrow). Axial CT (c), and SPECT/ CT images (d) showed elevated 99mTc-MDP activity in a brain metastasis at the grey-white matter junction in the right parietal lobe (white arrow)
