title: Scintigraphic findings in hyperostosis frontalis interna.
abstract: Transient diminution of activity was seen on early radionuclide images of the brain in 5 patients with hyperostosis frontalis interna and filled in on subsequent studies. Radiographs confirmed the diagnosis. In 3 patients the changes corresponded extremely well with both modalities. This entity should be considered when diminished activity is seen in the frontal area.
