title: [Bone scintigraphy of metastatic calcifications].
abstract: The bone scintigrams of 4 cases with metastatic calcification in the lung, stomach and myocardium were presented. These four cases were malignancy with hypercalcemia. Metastatic calcifications were not able to be detected by radiographs and CT. Therefore, bone scan seems to be the most useful method for detection of metastatic calcification.
