Bone scan showing bone metastases. Whole-body MDP bone scan in a patient with skeletal metastases from prostate cancer. Anterior (left) and posterior (right) images of the patient's entire body. Note regions of expected radiotracer uptake, forming anatomic map of bones. Additionally, concentrated radiotracer in the process of excretion is noted within the bladder. There are multifocal regions of bright increased uptake corresponding to foci of bone metastasis.
