Diffuse and intense Tc-99m HMDP localization in the liver due to hypoxia secondary to respiratory failure.
After left lower lobe lobectomy for lung carcinoma, a patient had acute respiratory failure secondary to pneumonia and pulmonary embolism requiring a ventilator. Tc-99m HMDP bone scan showed diffuse, intense hepatic uptake. Concurrent liver enzymes indicated hepatic necrosis. Two weeks later the patient died and a limited chest autopsy confirmed acute adult onset respiratory distress syndrome. Etiologic factors of massive hepatic necrosis in relation to hepatic localization of bone imaging agent and its prognostic outcome are discussed.

Diagnosis and outcome of a dog with iatrogenic hyperadrenocorticism and secondary pulmonary mineralization.
A 6-year-old, spayed female dog was evaluated for a history of chronic coughing, excessive panting, and lethargy. Iatrogenic hyperadrenocorticism was diagnosed, and pulmonary mineralization was documented with a 99m Technitium-methylene diphosphonate (99mTc-MDP) scan. Blood gas analysis showed hypoxia. Clinical signs resolved and blood gas values returned to normal when corticosteroid therapy was discontinued.

Severe hypoxemia secondary to acute sternal infarction in sickle cell anemia.
This article describes a 28-yr-old black man with sickle cell anemia who presented with severe chest pain secondary to acute infarction of the body of the sternum, hypoventilation, and hypoxemia with no evidence of acute chest syndrome. A bone scan performed 5 days after admission revealed increased uptake in the sternum, suggesting sternal infarction. Repeat bone scan performed 2 mo later demonstrated normal concentration in the sternum.
