Is femoral uptake of Tc99m-methylene diphosphonate on bone scintigraphy in bronchogenic carcinoma an alarming sign: A case report and brief review of literature?

Detection of skeletal metastasis in patients with lung cancer is important from management point of view. We report the bone scan finding in a patient with non-small cell lung carcinoma showing isolated abnormal tracer in femur and having a characteristic appearance in computed tomography, highlight...
