Urinary Bladder Carcinoma Demonstrated on Bone Scintigraphy and SPECT/CT Images

Bone scintigraphy with Tc-99m-diphosphonate analogs are widely used in staging, restaging, and monitoring the therapy effectiveness of various cancer types. Bone-seeking agents are excreted through urination, resulting in the visualization of either anatomical abnormalities or pathological condition...

Sumario:Bone scintigraphy with Tc-99m-diphosphonate analogs are widely used in staging, restaging, and monitoring the therapy effectiveness of various cancer types. Bone-seeking agents are excreted through urination, resulting in the visualization of either anatomical abnormalities or pathological conditions of the kidneys and bladder. We present a case of a 63-year-old man with urinary bladder carcinoma depicted on whole body planar and single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography images.
