title: Diffuse cutaneous plasmacytomas demonstrated on gallium-67 imaging.
abstract: Gallium-67 scanning is a useful tool to search for infectious foci and malignant tumors. Multiple myeloma is one clinical indication for gallium-67 tumor survey. Here, we report a rare case of diffuse multiple cutaneous plasmacytomas from recurrent multiple myeloma, demonstrated by whole-body gallium-67 scan.
