- Abstract
The article presents a case study of the use of 18F-fluoride Positron Emission Tomography-Computed Tomography (PET/CT) for detecting bone metastasis in patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC). In the given patient, PET/CT showed multiple pathological bone lesions including the scapula, stemum, right rib, and pelvis. However, bone scintigraphy (BS) showed only faint images.
