In a patient with histologically proven neoplastic involvement of the skeleton, a /sup 99m/Tc-polyphosphate bone scan performed 5 hr after intravenous administration showed only a subtle increase in activity. At 10 hr the concentration of activity relative to background was greatly enhanced. On a subsequent /sup 18/F bone scan, there was a slight increase in activity similar to the initial (5-hr) /sup 99m/Tc-polyphosphate scan. Delayed blood clearance and/or altered uptake of the radiopharmaceutical may have played a role in the enhanced delayed images. (auth)
