Asymmetrically increased uptake in upper extremities on 99mTc-MDP bone scintigraphy caused by intra-arterial injection: Different uptake patterns in three cases
Unexpected findings on bone scintigraphy such as asymmetrical uptake in extremities may cause confusion for the diagnosis. The authors describe three cases of accidental intraarterial injection of Tc-(99m) methylene diphosphonate ((99m)Tc-MDP) on the antecubital region and discuss the findings and differential diagnosis.
