Abstract

The introduction of 99Tcm-labelled diphosphonates, together with the increasing sophistication of the gamma camera has revolutionized the diagnosis of bone disease over the past decade. Owing to the rapid development of this imaging technique, the requests for routine bone scans still continue to increase in most nuclear medicine departments and form the greatest part of the workload. This atlas provides a comprehensive collection of 99Tcm-labelled diphosphonate bone scans drawn from the authors' wealth of experience in two busy hospitals, one either side of the Atlantic. Other imaging techniques are only mentioned when relevant to the cases presented.
