摘要:
The extensive heterotopic bone formation in patients with fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) has been documented previously with radiographs. A case in which a Tc-99m MDP bone scan showed increased uptake at sites well before ossification could be documented radiographically is described. This finding suggests that bone scans would likely be useful to monitor the extent of involvement with FOP and to detect areas of new activity.
