title: [99mTc-MIBI uptake in breast abscess: a case report].
abstract: 99mTc-MIBI scintimammography was performed in a 24-year-old female with breast abscess. Intense tracer uptake in the breast abscess was noted on both early and delayed images. There are few descriptions of 99mTc-MIBI uptake in breast abscess, and this case indicated that abscess should be added to the differential diagnosis of breast 99mTc-MIBI uptake.
