Interesting Images: PDF OnlyUptake of Tc-99m MDP in Soft Tissue Calcific Deposits Due to the Tumor Lysis SyndromeFIG, LORRAINE M. M.B., Ch.B.; SHAPIRO, BRAHM M.B., Ch.B., Ph.D.; SHULKIN, BARRY L. M.D. Author Information From the Division of Nuclear Medicine, Department of Internal Medicine, University of Michigan Medical Center, Ann Arbor, Michigan Clinical Nuclear Medicine: October 1988 - Volume 13 - Issue 10 - p 765-767 Buy Abstract While uptake of bone scanning agents in soft tissue abnormalities is common and has multiple causes, uptake of bone scanning agents in calcium-phosphate deposits involved in the tumor lysis syndrome has not previously been reported. Further studies will be necessary to determine the incidence of soft tissue accumulation of Tc-99m MDP following massive phosphate release. © Lippincott-Raven Publishers.
