Incidental detection of adult polycystic kidney disease on routine bone scan.
A routine bone scan performed on a 36-y old male incidentally demonstrated enlarged kidneys with multifocal areas of radionuclide concentration suggestive of polycystic kidneys. Further evaluation using ultrasonography, CT scan, and a 99mTc-GHA renal scan confirmed the initial impression. The routine evaluation of the kidneys on a bone scan is emphasized as a simple method of identifying previously unsuspected renal structural abnormalities.

Dermal uptake of technetium-99m MDP in calcinosis cutis.
A rare case of extensive dermal uptake of Tc-99m MDP associated with renal failure is reported. The mechanism of Tc-99m MDP uptake in such examples of metastatic calcification is not proved, but may relate to adsorption onto hydroxyapatite crystals. This phenomenon is useful in demonstrating distribution of nonvisceral metastatic calcification.
