title: Follow-up bone scintigraphy images of a patient with osteoid osteoma during medical treatment.
abstract: Osteoid osteoma is a benign bone tumour which is usually seen in long bones. Although the eventual treatment of this tumour is surgery, medical treatment is another option. We present the 3 years follow-up bone scintigraphy images of a patient with osteoid osteoma which show improvement by medical treatment.
