Uptake of technetium 99m MDP by hepatoblastoma.
Focal uptake of 99mTc-MDP was seen in a case of hepatoblastoma. The focal uptake corresponded to an area of calcification on CT, which was shown histologically to consist of osteoid with mineralization. The mechanism of uptake by the tumor in this case is likely to be the same as for skeletal uptake.
