Extraosseous soft tissue uptake-in Multiple Myeloma.

Tc-99m Methylene Diphosphonate (MDP) bone scintigraphy has been used for the assessment of benign as well as malignant skeletal conditions. Non-osseous radiotracer uptake on bone scan is an unusual finding. It is usually performed for metastatic bone disease, and is generally not an indication in multiple myeloma, as osteolytic lesions typically show no radiotracer uptake. Despite this, substantial number of multiple myeloma patients undergo bone scintigraphy due to their presentation imitating a metastatic bone disease. We describe a case of multiple myeloma, where extra osseous uptake in lung and diffuse hepatic, has been noted on bone scan.
