  • Title: Cerebral infarction on 99mTc-MDP SPECT/CT imaging.
    Author: Guo J, Hu S, Wang H, Kuang A.
    Journal: Clin Nucl Med; 2013 Nov; 38(11):925-7. PubMed ID: 24089066.
    Abstract:
    A 70-year-old man with lung cancer underwent whole-body MDP bone scintigraphy to evaluate bone metastases that showed marked tracer uptake in the right side of the head, suggestive of skull metastasis. SPECT/CT imaging was performed for further evaluation. The SPECT images demonstrated increased MDP activity in the region of the brain perfused by the right middle cerebral artery. On CT images, there was a large hypoattenuation area corresponding to elevated MDP accumulation. At the same day, magnetic resonance angiography of the brain revealed occlusion of the right middle cerebral artery.
