    Abstract:
    Technetium-99m phosphate compounds are useful for bone scintigraphy. Furthermore they occasionally demonstrated acute myocardial infarction and myocarditis as positive lesions. Also accumulations in the extraskeletal muscle have been reported using these compounds. This case was a 47-year-old male and had localized rhabdomyolysis, caused by compartment syndrome. We report the usefulness of technetium-99m methylene diphosphonate to diagnose the location of rhabdomyolysis.
