Authors enumerate various malignant and benign cases which showed soft tissue uptake of $^{99m}Tc-MDP$. We hope it might be a help in understanding and interpreting bone scans. Among 10,361 $^{99m}Tc-MDP$ bone scans underwent from April, 1981 to March, 1986, 344 (3.3%) showed abnormal soft tissue uptake, which included 126 malignancies, 5 benign tumors, and 153 nontumorous diseases. Neuroblastoma(23.3%) and malignant fibrous histiocytoma(22.2%) showed highest positive uptake rate among various malignancies. We also illustrated typical cases according to possible mechanisms.
