Increased Tchyphen;99m-Sodium Medronate Accumulation in Renal Carcinoma

摘要

Technetium-99m-sodium medronate is commonly used for skeletal imaging. Renal excretion allows evaluation of the kidneys. Renal masses present as areas of diminished activity. In the case escribed, a renal carcinoma showed increased radionuclide accumulation, probably because of extensive tumor calcification.
