title: Radionuclide imaging of two patients with metastasis to a distal phalanx of the hand.
abstract: Although skeletal metastases from malignant neoplasms are common, the spread of cancer to the distal phalanx of the hand is quite rare. We have presented two cases with a distal phalangeal metastasis which could be definitely detected by radionuclide imaging.
