Lytic bony lesions on 18F-FDG PET-CT versus 99mTc MDP bone scan Authors Nida Rasheed Department of Nuclear Medicine, Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Center, Lahore Mairah Razi Department of Nuclear Medicine, Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Center, Lahore DOI: https://doi.org/10.47391/JPMA.23-76 Abstract With rising incidence of breast carcinoma in Asian population, staging workup remains a crucial entity in diseasemanagement and outcome. Bone scintigraphy for detection of osteoblastic metastasis has remained a convenient choice.However, in the presence of underlying lytic bony lesions sensitivity of 99mTc-MDP bone scan is questionable when comparedto 18F-FDG PET-CT scan. We present a case that showed better sensitivity of 18F-FDG PET-CT for picking up early lytic lesionsfor staging breast cancer.Keywords: breast carcinoma, bone scan, 18F-FDG PET-CT.
