Abstract
|
|
|
|
A 56 year-old women with a history of breast cancer underwent Tc-99m Hydroxymethylene Diphosphonate (HDP) bonescintigraphy at an annual follow-up, and abnormal focal uptake was observed in the right upper abdomen. However, subsequentsingle photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) successfully delineated the uptakein a normal gallbladder. It was concluded that the abnormality had been caused by unusual Tc-99m HDP excretion and notby a metastatic lesion. Follow-up studies confirmed this diagnosis. This case demonstrates the usefulness of SPECT/CT inpatients with unusual gallbladder uptake by bone scintigraphy.
