title: Intense and diffuse lung uptake of 99mTc-MDP in a patient with pneumonia associated with secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis.
abstract: 99mTc-methylene diphosphonate (MDP) bone scan was performed in a 49-year-old female patient who had non-Hodgkin lymphoma. 99mTc-MDP uptake was significant in both lungs. Bilateral bacterial pneumonia associated with secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis was diagnosed after extensive examination.
