IntroductionA metastatic calcification is known for taking in bone scintigram medicine at metastatic calcification lesion due to abnormal distribution of the calcium and phosphorus. The one paper reports that a metastatic calcification occurs mainly at lung, stomach, kidney and myocardium.
Index: The patient is seventy four years old man who is afflicted with clonic kidney disease, hypercalcemia, hypertension. Because of an ability of the multiple myeloma, we take a bone scan after intravenous injection 99mTc-DPD 25 mCi in three hours. We found out homogeneous 99mTc-DPD uptake at both lung and myocardium.
Conclusion:Nothing unusual was found in other bone scan. We obtains a purity beyond 95 percent at 99mTc-DPD vial. In spite of no evidence about a myocardial infarction, the patient has a 99mTc-DPD uptake at both lung and myocardium.
