  • Title: Asymmetrically increased uptake in upper extremities on (99m)Tc-MDP bone scintigraphy caused by intra-arterial injection: different uptake patterns in three cases.
    Author: Ceylan Gunay E, Erdogan A.
    Journal: Rev Esp Med Nucl; 2011; 30(6):372-5. PubMed ID: 21440333.
    Abstract:
    Unexpected findings on bone scintigraphy such as asymmetrical uptake in extremities may cause confusion for the diagnosis. The authors describe three cases of accidental intraarterial injection of Tc-(99m) methylene diphosphonate ((99m)Tc-MDP) on the antecubital region and discuss the findings and differential diagnosis.
