Abstract

$^{99m}Tc-Sulfur$ Colloid is concentrated in Kupffer cells of the liver, whereas the new biliary agents such as $^{99m}Tc-HIDA$ are processed by hepatic parenchymal cells. The distant metastatic lesiors in skull and lung of the primary hepatocellular carcinoma in 38-year old Korean male were detected with $^{99m}Tc-HIDA$ scintigraphy. The chest PA, skull bone X-ray and radionuclide scintigraphic studies are illustrated. This observation suggests that $^{99m}Tc-HIDA$ scintigraphy is useful for detection of distant metastases of primary hepatocellular carcinoma.
