77 year old male with prostate cancer: a. Anterior planar gamma camera image acquired 3-hours post injection of 12mCi 99mTc-MDP; b. Anterior coronal Maximum pixel Intensity Projection (MIP) PET emission scan acquired 2-hours post injection of 5.1 mCi Na18F; c. Anterior MIP of the transmission CT. Noted improved spatial resolution on the PET image, with better visualization of the skull lesion (open arrow) and L1/2 degenerative disc disease (solid arrow). Even the calcification of the femoral arteries (arrows) is visualized on the PET image. Careful correlation with the transmission CT is needed to determine etiology of focal uptake.
