In the article above we referred to Bone Thugs-N-Harmony as Bones Thugs-N-Harmony.
Building on the methodological set-up developed by Zeintl et al. [8], we measure in this study the activity concentration (ACC) of 99mTc-diphosphono-propanedicarboxylic acid (DPD) in the spongious bone tissue without focal SPECT and CT abnormalities in women referred for bone scintigraphy.
We report the case of a 56-year-old male with bilateral total knee prostheses suffering from bilateral knee pain mainly on the right side and referred for bone scintigraphy.
High-risk patients at the time of diagnosis have been referred for bone scans before treatment decisions as part of the clinical routine.

Forty-four patients (18 women, 26 men, median age 42.5 years, range 18 62 years) were referred for bone scintigraphy with SPECT/CT by dedicated wrist surgeons following a detailed clinical physical examination of both wrists.
Forty-four patients (18 women, 26 men, median age 42.5 years, range 18 62 years) referred for bone SPECT/CT for painful symptomatic wrist (SW) were additionally imaged on their asymptomatic contralateral wrist (AW).
Fifty-eight consecutive patients (total 116 hands) referred for bone scan for suspected hand pathology gave their informed consent to have two acquisitions, using the routine camera and the CZT-based camera.
Osteoporosis is also associated with incident cardiovascular disease,[31] and hence delineation of cardiovascular disease risk may be particularly important for women referred for bone densitometry.
