Abstract

This review, using illustrative examples, shows the possibilities of using bone scintigraphy as a basic method for examining patients with osteosarcoma in accordance with the most significant international and domestic recommendations. The material is based on many years of experience and our own database of more than 1000 observations. The possibilities of other radionuclide diagnostic techniques in the diagnosis and monitoring of patients with osteosarcoma in solving various clinical problems are shown. The expediency of using three-phase osteoscitigraphy is based on the examination of 95 patients in dynamics. Radionuclide diagnostics has not lost its importance in the diagnosis of osteosarcoma and its metastases and continues to be in demand among pediatric and adult oncologists.
