Popis: Localization of skeletal tracer in a neuroblastoma primary is common but localization in extraskeletal metastatic sites has not received recognition. Tc-99m MDP concentration in hepatic or pulmonary metastases was noted in three of ten patients with such metastases. Lesion size appears to be important for demonstrating these metastases with Tc-99m MDP. This was particularly true for hepatic metastases, which were identified only when they were 5 cm or greater in diameter.
