Overview

99mTc-Sestamibi and PET/CT may be helpful in the diagnosis of MGUS. 99mTc-Sestamibi show increased mitochondrial activity and findings on PET/CT may show early involvement of bone marrow.

Other Imaging Findings

99mTc-Sestamibi and PET/CT may be helpful in the diagnosis of MGUS. 99mTc-Sestamibi show incresaed mitochondial activity and findings on PET/CT may show early involvement of bone marrow.[1] PET/CT is also commonly performed to assess for osseous lesions, as PET/CT is very sensitive for bone breakdown.
