Metastatic Calcification Revealed by the Bone Scan at Both Lung and a Myocardium

Introduction: A metastatic calcification is known for taking in bone scintigram medicine at metastatic calcification lesion due to abnormal distribution of the calcium and phosphorus. The one paper reports that a metastatic calcification occurs mainly at lung, stomach, kidney and myocardium. Index: The patient is seventy four years old man who is afflicted with clonic kidney disease, hypercalcemia, hypertension. Because of an ability of the multiple myeloma, we take a bone scan after intravenous injection $^{99m}Tc$-DPD 25 mCi in three hours. We found out homogeneous $^{99m}Tc$-DPD uptake at both lung and myocardium. Conclusions: Nothing unusual was found in other bone scan. We obtains a purity beyond 95 percent at $^{99m}Tc$-DPD vial. In spite of no evidence about a myocardial infarction, the patient has a $^{99m}Tc$-DPD uptake at both lung and myocardium.
