Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of 18F-fluoride PETcomputed tomography (CT) in the detection of bone metastasis in patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and compare the results with fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) PETCT and technetium-99m methylene diphosphonate bone scintigraphy (BS) when available.
