  • Title: Photon deficient bone metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma with avid gallium-67 uptake.
    Author: Tisdale PL, Collier BD, Isitman AT, Hellman RS, Reif LJ.
    Journal: J Nucl Med; 1985 Dec; 26(12):1415-7. PubMed ID: 2999353.
    Abstract:
    While bone metastases producing photon deficient defects on bone scintigraphy have previously been reported, this finding has not been emphasized for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Furthermore, "filling-in" of such photon deficient defects with 67Ga at skeletal sites of metastatic HCC has not been described. In this case report, the combination of a photon deficient defect on bone scintigraphy and avid accumulation of 67Ga in this same area was of value in confirming the diagnosis of metastatic HCC.
