Bone scintigraphy with Tc99m- diphosphonate analogues is widely used in staging, restaging and monitoring therapy effectiveness of various cancer types. Bone seeking agents are excreted through urination, resulting in visualization of either anatomical abnormalities or pathological conditions of kidneys and bladder. We present a case of a 63 year old-man with urinary bladder carcinoma depicted on Whole Body planar and SPECT/CT images.
