k Secondary metastatic bone cancer falsecolour gamma camera scan of a left arm, showing areas of increased uptake of radioactivity in the humerus upper arm and ulna forearm. The increased activity hot spots is represented by the pale blue regions. This is consistent with the sites of bone metastases, given that this particular patient had already received treatment for a primary cancer. This diagnosis would be confirmed by Xray examination. The radioactive tracer used here was technetium99m linked to methylene diphosphate MDP. Editorial Stock Photo - Afloimages
