A 42-year-old male patient with high-risk prostate adenocarcinoma underwent baseline 99m Tc-methylene diphosphonate skeletal scintigraphy, which revealed two skeletal metastases and an area of faint radiotracer uptake in the left femoral shaft. In view of oligo-metastatic nature of the disease in the bone scan and the young age of the patient, he was a candidate for metastases-directed treatment. Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/CT was performed to further characterize this lesion. It was revealed to be a small soft tissue density lesion within the fatty bone marrow density, suggesting bone marrow involvement. A more sensitive evaluation of such areas with faint radiotracer uptake may be needed in high-risk prostate cancer patients where access to advanced modalities is limited. Their significance will also need reassessment as their detection will improve with technological advancements.

Is Further Evaluation of Areas with Faint MDP Uptake Needed in Individuals with Oligo-Metastatic Prostatic Adenocarcinoma?
