title: Scintigraphic features of nonosteogenic fibroma.
abstract: Three cases of nonosteogenic fibroma or fibrous cortical defect are presented which demonstrated scintigraphic findings of minimal to mild increased uptake of bone-seeking radiopharmaceutical and thus helped to distinguish these lesions from other benign or malignant abnormalities. The authors suggest that the two types of lesion are not fundamentally different from one another.
