Title: Spinal chondrosarcoma demonstrated by Tc-99m-MDP bone scan. Author: Smith FW, Nandi SC, Mills K. Journal: Clin Nucl Med; 1982 Mar; 7(3):111-2. PubMed ID: 6460584. Abstract: A case of chondrosarcoma of the spine in a 45-year-old woman is described. The bone scan performed after the intravenous injection of Tc-99m-MDP not only confirmed the solitary nature of the tumor, but also demonstrated its extent within the spinous process of the second dorsal vertebra. Preoperative bone scan in the management of chondrosarcoma is advocated as a safe, noninvasive technique for assessing the extent of the tumor.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
