Abstract:
A 59-year-old woman with hypercalcemia due to hyperparathyroidism and 1-year-old boy with cryptogenic hypercalcemia were referred for bone scanning. There were increased accumulations of the technetium-phosphate complex in thyroid, stomach, lung, heart, and kidney. 99mTc-MDP bone scanning was useful for detecting metastatic calcification.
