Gastrointestinal Uptake of Tc-99m HMDP Caused by Calcium Gluconate

摘要

Intense diffuse uptake of Tc-99m HMDP was seen in the gastrointestinal tract of a patient given liquid calcium gluconate. Bone scintigraphy was performed as a routine follow up 8 years after surgery for breast cancer. The gastrointestinal uptake disappeared when the administration of the liquid calcium gluconate was discontinued.
