Nucl. Med. Technol.2020 Jun 01; 48 AB - We present a 72-y-old woman with an osseous metastasis to the spine that had an atypical appearance on both nuclear medicine and radiologic modalities and was misdiagnosed as an abscess. We discuss the pitfalls of bone scintigraphy and the causes of photopenic metastatic lesions.
