ABSTRACT
Granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) is used clinically for chemotherapy-associated neutropenia. Very little is known about the manner in which pharmacologic dosing of G-CSF may affect radiologic studies in vivo. Dramatic changes on bone scan associated with the administration of G-CSF used to support dose-intensified combination chemotherapy in a patient with metastatic breast carcinoma are described. The scintigraphic findings were correlated histologically with increased hematopoietic activity in the bone marrow located in peripheral bones.
