| pubmed-article:6232181 | pubmed:abstractText | We report on 4 patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism of intestinal origin presenting a characteristical pattern of distribution, namely focal accumulations of 99mTc-methylene diphosphonate on locations typical of Looser's zones. In accordance with other authors we demonstrate the higher sensitivity of skeletal scintigraphy as compared to radiography which is well known from other disorders of bone. We also refer to the problems of differential diagnosis arising when multiple foci are visible on bone scan. | lld:pubmed |
