We present a patient with diffuse and intense uptake in the soft tissues of both lower legs and feet seen on 99mTc-HMDP bone scintigraphy. This finding presumably resulted from compromised blood supply to the lower legs plus a cold environment. The extraosseous bone imaging agent localization was presumably related to an existing ischemic condition that was exacerbated by cold. Differential diagnosis of the scan pattern should be differentiated from the artifact of socks contaminated by radioactive urine.
