Overview
Bone scan in osteosarcoma is used to observe abnormal areas of bone and metastasis.
Other Imaging Findings [1][2][3][4]
A bone scan uses bone-seeking radioactive materials (radiopharmaceuticals) and a computer to create a picture of the bones. Bone scan in osteosarcoma is used to:
- Observe abnormal areas of bone.
- Many bone tumors will light up on a bone scan.
- Observe if cancer has spread to other bones (metastasis).
-
Delayed images of a bone scan demonstrate the femoral lesion to have increased activity. No other lesions evident.
