Abstract
- A 65-year-old woman with known breast cancer presented with lower back pain over 1 month. Multiple sclerotic foci of increased tracer uptake in the bones were noted on the Tc-MDP bone scintigraphy and SPECT/CT images, suggesting osteoblastic metastasis. Unexpectedly, symmetric Tc-MDP activity was visualized in the soft tissue near the umbilical area, corresponding to the sites of insulin injection.
