Increased Liver and Spleen Accumulation of Tc-99m Methylene Diphosphonate Associated With Intravenous Injection of MRI Contrast Gadolinium-Diethylenetriaminepentaacetic Acid
Several conditions that can cause diffuse hepatic or splenic uptake of Tc-99m methylene diphosphonate (Tc-99m MDP) have been previously reported. Nevertheless, diffuse abnormal liver and spleen uptake of Tc-99m MDP associated with intravenous injection of magnetic resonance imaging contrast gadolinium-diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid is not previously known. In our series, we reported diffuse increased Tc-99m MDP activity in the liver and spleen in bone scans in patients who received Tc-99m MDP injection shortly after contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging.
