Detection of cold bone metastasis by Tc-99m MIBI imaging

Ann Nucl Med. 2001 Aug;15(4):393-5. doi: 10.1007/BF02988251.

Abstract

We present a case of renal cell carcinoma metastasis to the skull, appearing as a photopenic area on Tc-99m MDP bone scan and with focal uptake in the same region on Tc-99m MIBI imaging.
