We report the 99mTc-MDP bone scan of a 44-year-old man with a history of lung adenocarcinoma and recent multiple joint pain after completing pembrolizumab immunotherapy treatment. This interesting image of symmetric uptakes around bilateral joints throughout the skeleton resembles the ball sensors on a motion capture suit. Hence, we recommend naming this distinctive imaging appearance as the "motion capture suit" sign.

This article presents 582 bone scan images from 291 adult patients who attended the Nuclear Medicine Service at the Instituto de Investigaciones en Ciencias de la Salud (IICS) of the Universidad Nacional de Asunción (UNA), Paraguay, between 2020 and 2024. The images were acquired using trimodal SPECT-CT-PET equipment, model AnyScan SCP, and the MEDISO brand. Approximately 20 mCi of technetium-99m methylene diphosphonate (Tc-MDP) was administered to each patient, producing whole-body planar images in anterior and posterior projections of the axial and appendicular skeleton with a resolution of 256 × 1024 pixels.

To analyze the clinical characteristics of patients with metastatic calcification undergoing maintenance dialysis. Patients diagnosed with metastatic calcification via 99mTc-MDP bone scintigraphy between June 2019 and March 2023 at our hospital were included in this study. All patients were followed from the time of diagnosis until death, loss to follow-up, or the study endpoint (July 2023).

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) in detecting and localizing the causative vertebra in cases of suspected fresh osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) in patients with contraindications to MRI.
Methods: A total of 21 patients with severe back pain with 31 suspected OVCF segments and contraindications to MRI were initially identified through radiographs and the back pain-inducing test (BPIT). The responsible vertebral bodies were determined using [Tc]MDP SPECT/CT before percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP).
Evaluation of the SwiftScan mode in bone single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging: effect on imaging quality and a semi-quantitative analysis.

Background: Tc-stannous methylene diphosphonate (Tc-MDP) bone single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) imaging plays a crucial role in various clinical applications. Many strategies have been developed to reduce the injection activity and procedure time, improve the patient experience and reduce their anxiety prior to and during SPECT imaging. This study aimed to evaluate the SwiftScan mode and its effect on image quality, and diagnostic performance of malignant skeletal lesions in bone SPECT image.
