Spectrum of technetium-99m methylene diphosphonate (99mTc MDP) uptake in Osteosarcoma Authors Sana Munir Gill Department of Nuclear Medicine, Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Center, Lahore Sadaf Mufty Department of Nuclear Medicine, Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Center, Lahore Aamna Hassan Department of Nuclear Medicine, Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Center, Lahore DOI: https://doi.org/10.47391/JPMA.23-53 Keywords: Spectrum of technetium Abstract Osteosarcoma is a frequently occurring primary skeletal malignancy in the adolescent population. It arises from primitive mesenchymal bone forming cells and frequently involves long bones near the metaphyseal growth plate. Multiple imaging modalities are used for complete staging workup at the time of presentation; including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for local disease extent, computed tomography (CT) scan to rule out pulmonary metastasis, and bone scan to look for distant osseous metastases. We present the case of a young boy with osteosarcoma of left tibia, showing additional findings on MDP bone scan acquired for initial staging work up.
